233 - Improving Access to Ototoxicity Monitoring for Patients and Clinicians (Part 1)
Ototoxicity monitoring is a vital tool for preserving hearing in patients undergoing treatments with ototoxic medications, such as those used for cancer or tuberculosis. Bob Traynor and Renee Lafrancois from Shoebox Audiometry discuss the practical applications of this monitoring and how accessible tools are making it easier for clinicians to integrate into patient care.
Renee explains the global implications of ototoxicity monitoring, especially in low-resource areas where access to audiological care is limited. This episode explores the importance of collaboration between audiologists and oncologists to ensure patients' hearing is monitored during treatment, despite logistical challenges.
Looking ahead, Bob and Renee preview a follow-up episode where they will dive deeper into case studies and specific procedures for remote ototoxicity monitoring using automated audiometry. The upcoming episode will explore how these tools are making a difference in various clinical settings.
