“…Another study 7 noted the great variability in the prevalence of hearing loss in children, from 1.4% (regarding 29 countries) to 17.5% (Netherlands). The same was found in Africa 8 and evidenced in a systematic review 9 . Although there is variability, it is evident that hearing loss in children is common 7 and has important impacts on their development.…”

“…Studies have shown a diversity of methods used for hearing screening in schools 7,9,19,20 , which vary from the combination of clinical procedures with different pass-fail criteria 7,9,19,20 to the development of new tools 21,22 and use screening methods varying within the same country 23 as evidenced by the next examples. A study with schoolchildren between 6 and 9 years old combined TEOAE, DPOAE, and tympanometry procedures 20 .…”

Objective: to evaluate the sensitivity and specificity of three hearing screening protocols: audiometry, tympanometry, and transient evoked otoacoustic emissions (TEOAE). Methods: a cross-sectional study comprising 70 schoolchildren aged 6-14 years old (9.9 ± 2). All participants underwent a complete audiological evaluation and screening procedures. Procedures were compared regarding sensitivity, specificity, and positive and negative predictive values. Results: sensitivity and specificity were, respectively, 64.71% and 66.04% for audiometry, 64.71% and 73.58% for tympanometry, and 66.67% and 78.85% for TEOAE. The positive and negative predictive values were 37.93% and 14.63% for audiometry, 44% and 13.33% for tympanometry, and 52.17% and 12.77% for TEOAE. Conclusions: in the school setting, TEOAE stands out from the two other screening protocols, in all measures regarding sensitivity, accuracy, and predictive values.

“…Several studies in school-aged children support the reported estimates for vision loss and hearing loss, with most suggesting that the GBD estimates were conservative. [35][36][37][38] For example, in 1 systematic review of childhood hearing loss, a prevalence of between 0.8% and 46.7% was reported across 26 well-conducted studies from different regions, 36 whereas 2 population-based studies from Canada and the United Sates revealed estimates of between 4.5% and 7.9%, compared with a GBD estimate of 2.2% for North America. More crucially, these findings underscore the need to develop local capacity toward early identification and timely on-going support for children and adolescents with any disability and their families, especially in high-burden LMIC.…”

BACKGROUND: Estimates of children and adolescents with disabilities worldwide are needed to inform global intervention under the disability-inclusive provisions of the Sustainable Development Goals. We sought to update the most widely reported estimate of 93 million children ,15 years with disabilities from the Global Burden of Disease Study 2004. METHODS: We analyzed Global Burden of Disease Study 2017 data on the prevalence of childhood epilepsy, intellectual disability, and vision or hearing loss and on years lived with disability (YLD) derived from systematic reviews, health surveys, hospital and claims databases, cohort studies, and disease-specific registries. Point estimates of the prevalence and YLD and the 95% uncertainty intervals (UIs) around the estimates were assessed. RESULTS: Globally, 291.2 million (11.2%) of the 2.6 billion children and adolescents (95% UI: 249.9-335.4 million) were estimated to have 1 of the 4 specified disabilities in 2017. The prevalence of these disabilities increased with age from 6.1% among children aged ,1 year to 13.9% among adolescents aged 15 to 19 years. A total of 275.2 million (94.5%) lived in lowand middle-income countries, predominantly in South Asia and sub-Saharan Africa. The top 10 countries accounted for 62.3% of all children and adolescents with disabilities. These disabilities accounted for 28.9 million YLD or 19.9% of the overall 145.3 million (95% UI: 106.9-189.7) YLD from all causes among children and adolescents. CONCLUSIONS: The number of children and adolescents with these 4 disabilities is far higher than the 2004 estimate, increases from infancy to adolescence, and accounts for a substantial proportion of all-cause YLD. WHAT'S KNOWN ON THIS SUBJECT: The World Disability Report 2011 indicated that at least 93 million (∼5.1%) children ,15 years old had a moderate-to-severe disability and 13 million (0.7%) had a severe disability on the basis of the Global Burden of Disease Study 2004. WHAT THIS STUDY ADDS: More than 291 million children aged ,20 years had epilepsy and intellectual and sensory disabilities in 2017. The top 10 countries accounted for 62% of the children with these disabilities, and 95% lived in low and middle income countries.

“…Nesse ínterim, o uso do cotonete não é recomendado, devido a possibilidade de deslocamento do cerúmen substância produzida pelas glândulas sebáceas para lubrificação e proteção do ouvido, até o fundo do Canal Auditivo Externo. Cabe dizer que, excepcionalmente, os excessos desta glândula, quando produzidos em média e alta densidade e com endurecimento do seu conteúdo, podem ser avaliadas e aplicada a técnica de sua retirada por profissionais da saúde habilitados em cuidados clínicos de saúde auditiva (Nunes et al, 2019).…”

Objetivo: analisar os discursos das juventudes produzidos no Programa “Em Sintonia com a Saúde”, veiculado na web rádio, acerca de diálogos sobre saúde auditiva. Metodologia: pesquisa descritiva, do tipo documental, com abordagem qualitativa, abrangendo o conteúdo da comunicação síncrona, a partir de uma amostra de 83 participantes. Resultados: as juventudes demonstram em seus discursos que os saberes das ciências modernas compõem seus repertórios de conhecimento e interesses sobre o tema, bem como suas dizibilidades circularam em torno dos cuidados higiênicos, das regulações legais com a sonoridade pública e privada, dos usos adequado dos dispositivos auriculares e dos adoecimentos causados pelo excesso de sonoro. Conclusão: Em vista disso, os diálogos mediados na web rádio fortaleceram os cuidados com a saúde auditiva, facilitados pelo uso de informações acessadas através dos dispositivos de comunicação digitais, essenciais a promoção da saúde.
