Ménière’s Disease: Definition, Evaluation, and Intervention

Ménière’s disease is an inner ear condition that affects both balance and hearing. Symptoms, which can fluctuate, include vertigo (sometimes severe), hearing loss, ear fullness, and tinnitus, usually affecting one ear. This presentation covers both foundational and current research about Ménière’s disease and its clinical manifestations, otologic and audiologic evaluation, and intervention. Our webinar presenter Wafaa Kaf, M.D., Ph.D., CCC-A, FAAA, is a professor in the department of communication sciences and disorders at Missouri State University and a 2015 Emerging Research Grants scientist funded by The Estate of Howard W. Schum.
