Determination of Hearing Loss Prevalence in Preschool Children of Ahwaz
Introduction: Children learn to communicate by hearing sounds. If there is hearing loss, the cognitive and speaking abilities and language learning will deteriorate. Early detection and intervention are important factors in the successful treatment of hearing loss in children. Hearing loss (HL) is divided into two main groups: conductive hearing loss (CHL) and sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL)...
متن کاملUnilateral hearing loss in children with shunt-treated hydrocephalus.
This study investigated the characteristics of hearing loss in children with ventriculoperitoneal (VP) shunted hydrocephalus. Twelve hydrocephalic children with patent VP shunts participated. The etiology of the hydrocephalus was either intraventricular hemorrhage or spina bifida. Audiometric examination included pure-tone air conduction thresholds, tympanometry, contralateral and ipsilateral a...
متن کاملChanges in auditory perceptions and cortex resulting from hearing recovery after extended congenital unilateral hearing loss
Monaural hearing induces auditory system reorganization. Imbalanced input also degrades time-intensity cues for sound localization and signal segregation for listening in noise. While there have been studies of bilateral auditory deprivation and later hearing restoration (e.g., cochlear implants), less is known about unilateral auditory deprivation and subsequent hearing improvement. We investi...
متن کاملEpidemiology of unilateral sensorineural hearing loss with universal newborn hearing screening.
OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS Compare the epidemiology of pediatric unilateral sensorineural hearing loss before and after implementation of universal newborn hearing screening in Missouri. STUDY DESIGN Inception cohort. METHODS Charts of 134 children born between January 1, 1990 and December 31, 2007, diagnosed with unilateral sensorineural hearing loss at a single institution in Missouri were rev...
متن کاملNasalance Scores of Sentences in Children with Hearing Loss
Background and purpose: Proper resonance is a major factor for the comprehension of speech in individuals with hearing loss. These people have low speech intelligibility caused by inappropriate resonance. Therefore, nasalance measurement is a principal aspect of the assessment of people with hearing loss. This study aimed at determining nasalance in children with hearing loss. Materials and me...
