Estudo comparativo do equilíbrio de crianças surdas e ouvintes

Abstract: RESUMOObjetivo: comparar o equilíbrio estático, dinâmico e recuperado de crianças surdas e ouvintes. Métodos: foram avaliadas 9 crianças surdas e 18 crianças ouvintes, de 9 a 12 anos, de ambos os sexos. Foram utilizados os seguintes testes: teste "do quatro" e de Romberg (equilíbrio estático), teste "passeio na trave" e de Unterberger (equilíbrio dinâmico), e giro de 180º (equilíbrio recuperado). Resultados: em todos os testes, a maioria dos ouvintes apresentou equilíbrio estável, enquanto a maioria dos surdos… Show more

“…Due to the proximity of the anatomical structures responsible for auditory and vestibular function, it is common to find associated changes in both systems in the case of involvement of the inner ear 5 ; thus it is believed that many children with hearing loss have vestibular problems concomitant with sensorineural hearing loss. 6 In this sense, studies have shown that the hypoactivity of the vestibular system is a common finding during otoneurologic assessment in children with sensorineural hearing loss, 7 8 9 altering the sensory information from the vestibular system.…”
