Journal Title: Otolaryngologia Polska - Year 2016, Vol 70, Issue 4
Abstract
Introduction: It is assumed that the critical period for diagnosis of hearing disorders is the baby’s first three months of life and that appropriate course and implementation of treatment and/or rehabilitation should begin before a child is six months old. However various kinds of problems may occur during auditory screening of a child may exceed this interval. This problem is particularly pronounced among children with development and health problems and leads to unreliable and varied results. Aim: The aim of this study was an analysis of prevalence of difficulties occurring during the first year of auditory screening among groups of children with congenital hearing impairment.
