Publication at Second Faculty of Medicine |

Abstract

Hearing disorders are often a common disability. At the scientific age, especially in the case of a severe disorder, kinformation deprivation can occur, in the case of a unilateral disability, the auditory orientation in space is impaired.

Early diagnosis and conservative or surgical solutions depend on the cooperation of parents, pediatricians, phoniatricians and co-surgeons. Many parents need enough adequate information about treatment options that have their limits and pitfalls to avoid receiving treatment with inadequate expectations.

Many parents, on the other hand, need encouragement to improve their child's hearing by actively participating. For the youngest children, preventive interventions are precautionary and careful monitoring of hearing function.
