Diagnosing Contributions of Sensory and Cognitive Deficits to Hearing Dysfunction in Blas-Exposed/TBI Service Members

Abstract

The primary focus of Year 3 of the study has been subject recruitment and data collection. Recruitment for the blast-exposed experimental group continues to be challenging; however, we have adjusted our inclusion criteria and have extended our recruitment efforts to audiology clinics and other facilities outside of the Walter Reed National Military Medical Center. At the conclusion of Year 3 we have consented 167 (122 male, 45 female) potential study participants of which 109 (73 male, 36 female) were eligible for full participation.
