Trauma from adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) and serious traumatic events in adulthood is a significantly prevalent concern for public-health-hearing healthcare professionals. The pediatric and geriatric populations that audiologists often work with have been shown to be at an increased risk of experiencing traumatic events. Childhood and adult trauma can significantly impact the hearing and vestibular testing and treatment of these patients.
This narrative review article discusses trauma-informed care (TIC) strategies that audiologists can use to recognize and respond to trauma in patients and prevent retraumatizing patients during their encounters in audiology clinics.
This article will provide an overview of TIC and direct the reader to resources for their continued learning. Practical guidance on implementing trauma-informed practices in clinical audiology are also provided.
童年不良经历(ACEs)和成年期严重创伤事件所带来的创伤,是公共卫生听力保健专业人员极为普遍关注的问题。听力学专家经常接触的儿科和老年人群体,已被证明经历创伤事件的风险更高。儿童期和成年期创伤会对这些患者的听力及前庭测试与治疗产生重大影响。
这篇叙述性综述文章讨论了创伤知情护理(TIC)策略,听力学专家可利用这些策略来识别并应对患者的创伤,以及在听力学诊所的诊疗过程中防止患者再次受到创伤。
本文将概述创伤知情护理,并为读者提供持续学习的资源指引。同时还提供了在临床听力学中实施创伤知情实践的实用指导。
