| dc.description.abstract | Objective: The incidence of the hearing loss and of otological problems was studied in school communities in the north of the country with 2550 participants between 3 and 17 years old. Study Design: statistical data collected within the schools with a standard auditory hearing screening protocol. Material and Methods: All participants were evaluated with the same protocol, an audiological anamnesis, otoscopy and audiometric exam screening were fulfilled. Results: Different otological problems were identified and the audiometric screening exam counted auditory thresholds that outpointed uni and bilateral hearing loss in about 5,7% of the cases. Conclusions: The study has demonstrated that auditory school screening should take place as early as possible and be part of the primary health care to identify and direct children to appropriate education and attendance. | por |
