Abstract

BACKGROUND:Sensorineural hearing loss is the most common type of permanent hearing impairment and results in postural control and motor deficits in children that may affect or delay all developmental indicators. OBJECTIVE:The purpose of the study was to investigate the efficacy of balance exercisesintervention on postural control-related impairment in children with sensorineural hearing loss. METHODS:Forty students of both genders, ages ranging from 10 to 16 years, diagnosed with severe to profound sensorineural hearing loss, were selected from the Public School for the Deaf and Hard of Hearing in El-Minia district, Minia governorate, Egypt. They divided randomly into two groups, 20 (study group), received balance exercises in addition to their ordinary daily living activities. Meanwhile, the control group of 20 children practiced only the ordinary daily living activities. The outcome was assessed pre-treatment and post-treatment by Humac Balance System and Bruininks-Oseretsky Test (BOT-2) subtest (5) for balance. RESULTS:Regarding the Humac balance system and subtest (5) of BOT-2, there was a statistically significant difference between pre-treatment data and post-treatment data of the study group with a p value equal to 0.036 or less. However, no statistically significant difference was observed in the control group with a p value equal to 0.096 or more. Finally, there was a statistically significant difference between the groups with respect to the post-treatment data, where the p value was 0.014 or less. CONCLUSION:Postural control of children with sensorineural hearing loss has been improved by balance exercises.

平衡练习对感音神经性听力损失儿童姿势控制相关障碍的干预效果

背景：感音神经性听力损失是最常见的永久性听力障碍，会导致儿童姿势控制和运动障碍，从而影响或延迟各项发育指标。目的：本研究旨在探讨平衡练习对感音神经性听力损失儿童姿势控制相关障碍的干预效果。方法：研究人员从埃及米尼亚省米尼亚地区的公立聋哑学校选取了 40 名被诊断为重度至极重度感音神经性听力损失的男女学生，他们的年龄从 10 岁到 16 岁不等。他们被随机分为两组，研究组的 20 名儿童在日常活动之外还接受了平衡训练。与此同时，对照组的 20 名儿童只进行普通的日常生活活动。治疗前和治疗后的结果由Humac平衡系统和Bruininks-Oseretsky测试（BOT-2）的平衡子测试（5）进行评估。结果：在 Humac 平衡系统和 BOT-2 测试子测试（5）方面，研究组治疗前数据与治疗后数据之间存在显著统计学差异，P 值等于或小于 0.036。然而，对照组没有观察到明显的统计学差异，P 值等于或大于 0.096。最后，在治疗后的数据方面，研究组与对照组之间存在明显的统计学差异，P 值等于或小于 0.014。结论：平衡练习改善了感音神经性听力损失儿童的姿势控制能力。

期刊介绍： NeuroRehabilitation, an international, interdisciplinary, peer-reviewed journal, publishes manuscripts focused on scientifically based, practical information relevant to all aspects of neurologic rehabilitation. We publish unsolicited papers detailing original work/research that covers the full life span and range of neurological disabilities including stroke, spinal cord injury, traumatic brain injury, neuromuscular disease and other neurological disorders. We also publish thematically organized issues that focus on specific clinical disorders, types of therapy and age groups. Proposals for thematic issues and suggestions for issue editors are welcomed.
