If every parent in the world is well educated enough on the difference causes and effects of hearing loss, then parents may be able to detect the hearing loss in its early stage in their child’s life and the possibly of reversing the effects of hearing loss. When hearing loss is discovered and treated as soon as it was detected, the children’s hearing loss shall be treated with therapies and hearing aids, among other things that could help them overcome such short coming.
There are actually some possible causes and effects that is usually related to our child’s hearing loss. One of which disorder is called the hypoxia-ischaemia, it is a more prevalent risk factor for the hearing impaired children. Experts have discovered that one of the side-effects of this kind of disorder would result a temporary hearing impairment, rather than being permanent. These were followed carefully which BAER tests were evaluated. These tests were closely monitored into normal infants’ auditory data and it is then compared to the results of infants who were born with hypoxia-ischaemia.
Although, there were experiments that yielded numerous children that weren’t screened have been diagnosed as a deaf before they may reached the age of six months old. The study has provided us the evidence that the hearing screening at birth is the ideal way to prevent and treat the deafness and hearing impairment into our children. Additionally, it was then discovered that some children that are suffering form hearing loss did not happen until the baby was over one and a half years of age. The parents are then being encouraged to go through these studies for their child to be screened at the time they are born and at the same time during their childhood years.
