Because the "H" in NSLHM stands for hearing, I'd like to share a link about two very different disorders that can seem the same.

I often counsel older patients and their families about the difference between hearing loss and central auditory processing disorder (CAPD). A person with hearing loss or CAPD will often respond to questions with "What did you say?" but the conditions are very different.

Hearing loss is an ear problem, and CAPD is a neural problem. Hearing loss can be caused by wax buildup, injury to the ear, or a physical inner ear disorder. CAPD affects the brain's aural processing centers and can be caused by genetics, brain injury, dementia, stroke or other neural damage.
Someone with hearing loss will understand you better when you look directly at them and articulate clearly and loudly. On the other hand, someone with CAPD doesn't need extra volume. They will understand you better when you get their attention with a short introduction in a normal speaking voice, then allow them extra time to process what you say in smaller, manageable chunks of information. In either case, when intelligence remains intact, choosing the right speaking pattern can help both communication partners enjoy the conversation! 😃👄👂
