BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES: The aim of the study was to evaluate the prevalence of undiagnosed hearing impairment or central auditory processing disorders in children from I and VIII grades of primary schools in Warsaw.
The participants in the study were 15,659 pupils from classes I and VIII attending primary schools in Warsaw. As part of the study, the hearing threshold for air conduction at frequencies of 0.5-8 kHz was determined, and a test assessing central auditory processing was performed: FPT (Frequency Pattern Test), DDT (Dichotic Digit Test), the Auditory Behaviour Scale (SAB), and an interview questionnaire developed for the program.
Abnormal test results were found in 1946 children, of which abnormal hearing screening test results were found in 678 children tested, while reduced central auditory processing results were found in 1268 children.
The program implemented draws attention to the fact that tests of central auditory processing are included in the testing protocol. As has been shown, peripheral hearing testing alone is not sufficient to exclude abnormalities concerning the sense of hearing.
背景/目的：本研究旨在评估华沙市小学一年级和八年级学生中未被诊断出的听力障碍或中枢听觉处理障碍的患病率。
本研究的参与者为华沙市小学一年级和八年级的15659名学生。作为研究的一部分，测定了0.5 - 8千赫兹频率下的气导听力阈值，并进行了一项评估中枢听觉处理的测试：频率模式测试（FPT）、双耳数字测试（DDT）、听觉行为量表（SAB），以及为该项目编制的一份访谈问卷。
在1946名儿童中发现了异常测试结果，其中在678名接受测试的儿童中发现了听力筛查测试结果异常，而在1268名儿童中发现了中枢听觉处理结果降低。
所实施的项目提请注意中枢听觉处理测试被纳入测试方案这一事实。如已表明的，仅进行外周听力测试不足以排除听力方面的异常。
