“…Consecutively, motoric development like motor skills and postural control might be impaired as well and might progress throughout childhood. (10) These impairments may finally lead to severe problems with motor function and school performance (11 years had problems to follow the examiner's instructions to look to the right, left, center, up or down. Additionally, some of the young infants (>6ys) had problem to maintain their head stable and consecutively the laser dots for calibration were starting to move and blurry.…”

“…To this end, there is scant literature focused on this topic which includes a documented association between vestibular dysfunction and poor school performance. 114 In addition, numerous studies in the learning disability literature suggest a correlation with "vestibulocerebellar function"; however, a huge amount of variability in the measurement and definition of vestibular impairment exists across this literature. 109 A thoughtful review of the cognitive impact of vestibular impairment in children suggests that such as there is with linguistic development, there is indeed likely a critical period to develop accurate spatial representations.…”

Sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) in children occurs in 1 to 3% of live births and acquired hearing loss can additionally occur. This sensory deficit has far reaching consequences that have been shown to extend beyond speech and language development. Thankfully there are many therapeutic options that exist for these children with the aim of decreasing the morbidity of their hearing impairment. Of late, focus has shifted beyond speech and language outcomes to the overall performance of children with SNHL in real-world environments. To account for their residual deficits in such environments, clinicians must understand the extent of their sensory impairments. SNHL commonly coexists with other sensory deficits such as vestibular loss. Vestibular impairment is exceedingly common in children with SNHL with nearly half of children exhibiting vestibular end-organ dysfunction. These deficits naturally lead to impairments in balance and delay in motor milestones. However, this additional sensory deficit likely leads to further impairment in the performance of these children. This article focuses on the following: 1. Defining the coexistence of vestibular impairment in children with SNHL and cochlear implants. 2. Describing screening methods aimed at identifying vestibular dysfunction in children with SNHL. 3. Understanding the functional implications of this dual-sensory impairment. 4. Exploring possible rehabilitative strategies to minimize the impact of vestibular impairment in children with SNHL.

“…Las personas con discapacidad auditiva cuya limitante les impide aprender su propia lengua, seguir con el aprovechamiento de las enseñanzas básicas, participar en actividades normales para su edad y de la vida diaria (Franco, 2008), por lo que los profesores requieren una especial comunicación, competencias y estrategias didácticas para facilitar la comprensión del currículo en el proceso enseñanza aprendizaje, estos recursos pueden ser manuales, gráficas, lectura labial, lenguaje de señas entre otros (Kurkova, Scheetz, y Stelzer, 2010). Por lo anterior, en el aprendizaje de la educación fisca se requieren métodos y apoyos para que el estudiante mejore su aprovechamiento (Cawthon, 2009, Hintermair, 2011.…”

Objetivo: evaluar el efecto de un programa de educación física adaptado en escolares con discapacidad auditiva sobre el cociente motor. Método: el diseño del estudio fue cuasiexperimental, con muestreo por conveniencia, participando treinta y ocho niños con una edad promedio de 7.4±0.9 años, diagnosticados con debilidad o pérdida auditiva, de dos escuelas de la ciudad de Mexicali, Baja California. México. Los participantes fueron divididos aleatoriamente en un grupo experimental (n=23) y otro control (n=15), a los cuales se les evaluó el cociente motor mediante el test de coordinación corporal para niños KTK (Körperkoordinationstest für Kinder de Kiphard y Schiling), por sus siglas en alemán, mediante las pruebas: desplazamientos en equilibrio de espaldas, saltos monopódales, saltos laterales y transposición sobre plataforma. El programa se realizó durante 4 meses, 5 veces por semana, con una duración de 50 minutos por sesión, comunicándose con los alumnos mediante el lenguaje de señas mexicano y realizando una serie de tareas que enfatizaran la coordinación motora. Resultados: al comparar los resultados entre grupos de la variable cociente motor, con el análisis de varianza (ANOVA) mixtas 2 x 2 se observó una interacción doblemente significativa entre los grupos y las mediciones (p = 0.01), los porcentajes de cambio (Δ %) fueron 26 % del grupo experimental y 6.5 %. del grupo control (Δ %). Conclusión: se establece que la aplicación de un programa de educación física adaptado durante cuatro meses, mejora la coordinación motora en niños con discapacidad auditiva.

Abstract: all vestibular alterations found had an irritative peripheral origin. There was a statistically significant association between vestibular alteration and poor performance at school.
