DESCRIPTION
Update of the 1996 U.S. Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) recommendation statement on screening for hearing impairment in older adults.
METHODS
The USPSTF reviewed evidence published between 1950 and January 2010 on screening for age-related sensorineural hearing impairment in adults aged 50 years or older without diagnosed hearing loss in the primary care setting.
POPULATION
This recommendation applies to asymptomatic adults aged 50 years or older. It does not apply to persons seeking evaluation for perceived hearing problems or for cognitive or affective symptoms that may be related to hearing loss.
RECOMMENDATION
The USPSTF concludes that the current evidence is insufficient to assess the balance of benefits and harms of screening for hearing loss in asymptomatic adults aged 50 years or older (I statement).
描述
1996 年美国预防服务工作组（USPSTF）关于老年人听力障碍筛查的推荐声明更新。
方法
USPSTF 审查了 1950 年至 2010 年 1 月间在初级保健环境中筛查 50 岁或以上成年人与年龄相关的感觉神经性听力障碍的证据，这些成年人没有被诊断为听力损失。
人群
本建议适用于无症状的 50 岁或以上成年人。它不适用于寻求听力问题评估或认知或情感症状评估的人，这些症状可能与听力损失有关。
建议
USPSTF 得出结论，目前的证据不足以评估对无症状 50 岁或以上成年人进行听力损失筛查的利弊平衡（I 级声明）。
