The aim of the study was to present the hearing and speech-language findings of preschool children. The children in this study were aged 3-5 years. Sixtyseven of 239 children (28.0%) had been referred to a physician because of possible middle ear problems, and 25 of the 67 children had slight and mild conduction type hearing loss with air-bone gaps. One of 239 children had profound sensorineural hearing loss. Speech-language problems were found in 70 of 239 children (29.3%). Necessary attention should be paid to the evaluation of hearing and speech-language skills in preschool-aged children to avoid delayed detection and to give these children the opportunity for timely intervention for hearing and speech-language problems.
该研究的目的是呈现学龄前儿童的听力及言语-语言检查结果。本研究中的儿童年龄在3至5岁之间。239名儿童中有67名(28.0%)因可能存在的中耳问题被转诊至医生处,这67名儿童中有25名存在轻度和中度传导性听力损失且气骨导间距异常。239名儿童中有1名患有重度感音神经性听力损失。239名儿童中有70名(29.3%)存在言语-语言问题。应重视对学龄前儿童听力及言语-语言技能的评估,以避免漏诊,并为这些儿童提供针对听力及言语-语言问题进行及时干预的机会。
