The role of ENT/audiology services in the implementation of inclusive education in the Pacific Islands – a scoping literature review for Samoa
Ethical considerations for universal newborn hearing screening in the Pacific Islands
Permanent congenital and early-onset hearing impairment (PCEOHI) is the most common sensory disorder among newborns. The WHO recommends newborn and infant hearing screening for all member states to facilitate early identification and intervention for children with PCEOHI. Ethical implications of newborn/infant hearing screening in low-income and middle-income countries should be considered. Although the Pacific Island region is estimated to have …
Development of a Risk-Factor Questionnaire for the Infant Ear and Hearing Program in Samoa
Ethical issues for large-scale hearing aid donation programmes to the Pacific Islands
The Pacific Islands are estimated to have among the highest global burdens of hearing loss, however, hearing health services are limited throughout this region. The provision of hearing aid is desirable, but should be delivered in accordance with WHO recommendations of appropriate and locally sustainable services. Large-scale hearing aid donation programmes to the Pacific Islands raise ethical questions that challenge these recommendations. The a…
A public health approach to pediatric hearing impairment in the Pacific Islands
Childhood hearing impairment is a significant \n cause of disability in developing countries, where \n infectious diseases are the leading cause of avoidable \n pediatric hearing loss. The World Health Organization \n (WHO) theme for World Hearing Day 2016 was \n “Childhood hearing loss: act now, here’s how!”, with a \n focus on preventable childhood hearing impairment through public health measures. This message \n was reprised for World Hearing…
Racial Heritage/Melanin and Otoacoustic Emission Measures of Cochlear Function
Researchers have hypothesized that races with high levels of melanin may possess superior cochlear robusticity. This study aimed to examine the relationship between cochlear function and racial heritage, by determining if a significant difference existed in otoacoustic emission (OAE) characteristics and hearing sensitivity between differing groups. OAEs, puretone thresholds, and tympanometric measures were obtained from 18 Caucasians and 19 Afric…
Amplification Use in Young Australian Adults with Profound Hearing Impairment
Efficacious rehabilitation demands the utilization of outcome measures, and establishing levels of client satisfaction can contribute greatly to such processes, providing a personal, functional perspective that is not so easily gained through standard, clinical outcome testing. The literature currently offers much insight into the factors affecting amplification use and service satisfaction in the elderly population. However, it is not known whic…
Hearing screening for children in community settings using transient evoked otoacoustic emissions
Despite widespread investigation and utilization of transient evoked otoacoustic emission (TEOAE) hearing screening programmes in the neonatal population, limited research has occurred into the applicability and particulars of TEOAE testing of other paediatric ages. Further consideration must be afforded to screening beyond the neonatal stage. Later, community-based options for hearing screening include the infant period and/or upon entry to prim…
Measuring the ability of children to understand everyday speech using computer technology
The present study aimed to standardize The University of Queensland Understanding Everyday Speech Test (UQUEST), a computer-based auditory test for measuring the ability of children to understand everyday speech, for Australian school-aged children. Participants were 41 Grade 3, and 58 Grade 4 students (55 boys/44 girls), attending primary schools in the Brisbane and Sunshine Coast areas. Their mean age was 8.3 years (SD = 0.7). The speech materi…
