Nurses were trained how to screen newborns using both otoacoustic emissions (OAEs) and automated auditory brainstem responses (AABRs). The purpose of this qualitative study was to explore nurses’ perceptions of the NHS program and the challenges they faced in implementing it.Semi-structured interviews were conducted with 11 nurses, one from each hospital, who performed NHS in Corporation Maternity Hospitals. Interviews were conducted using guides and probes developed and validated by experts.Four general themes that covered the nurses’ responses were identified: their understanding of NHS and skills in its execution; gaps in their understanding of the NHS program, constraints faced in implementing the screening program, and additional needs for support.Addressing gaps in training needs, providing full documentation, and overcoming poor adherence to NHS protocols would help the program grow. The lessons learnt are also transferable to programs conducted in similar low–middle income countries.","PeriodicalId":89975,"journal":{"name":"Journal of hearing science","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45214708","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Hearing loss is the most commonly reported neurological complication of BM; inflammation can damage the inner ear, leading to sensorineural hearing loss or complete deafness. Factors favoring neurological complications, including hearing impairment, are low age, immaturity of the immune system, poor health, anaemia, leukocytosis, and hypoglycemia. To avoid serious complications, quick intervention is necessary – administration of antibiotic in combination with dexamethasone. It is also important to conduct regular audiological tests to monitor hearing, not only immediately after BM, but also in the long term. Otoacoustic emissions (OAEs) and auditory brainstem responses (ABRs) are useful tools, and some researchers also recommend tympanometry. CTs and MRIs are important to visualize the condition of the inner ear after BM, paving the way for qualification for implantation and for pre-operative planning. The best results of implantation come from patients without ossification, whose period of deafness was short, where electrodes were inserted deeply, and who did not have neurological complications after BM. Early implantation is the best option as it promotes proper speech development and allows the child to adapt to their environment.","PeriodicalId":89975,"journal":{"name":"Journal of hearing science","volume":"4 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41289064","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The aim of the study was to assess the acoustic structure of the voice in children with vocal fold nodules and investigate the relationship between objective and subjective measures.The study group consisted of 223 children, aged 7 to 12 years with normal hearing. The control group included 213 children. All children underwent ENT and phoniatric examination including laryngovideostroboscopy (LVS), assessment of voice on the GRBAS perceptual scale, and acoustic analysis (spectrographic analysis using the Multi-Dimensional Voice Profile).In children with vocal fold nodules the average perceptual score for their voice was G1R1B0A0S2. No statistically significant effect of the child’s sex or age on the values of the MDVP parameters was found. The acoustic structure of the voice of children with childhood\u0000dysphonia and vocal fold nodules differed significantly from the acoustic structure of those in the control group. A relationship between GRBAS features and MDVP analysis was found.Voice acoustic analysis is a valuable tool for assessing voice quality in children. The analysis can identify deviations from normal values that the human ear is unable to pick up.","PeriodicalId":89975,"journal":{"name":"Journal of hearing science","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44752940","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Material and methods: The study was carried out on 546 women, aged 18-94 years and 696 men, aged 18-87 years, who were scheduled for hospitalisation between 1 May 2020 and 28 February 2021. PCR and antigen tests for the SARS-CoV-2 virus were performed in all patients. A negative result was a prerequisite for admission in order to undergo a diagnostic procedure or surgery. Results: SARS-CoV-2 virus testing was performed in 1242 patients, 44% of whom were female and 56% male. In terms of age distribution, the peak for women was either 51-60 years (7.3%) or 61-70 years (10.5%), while for males the peak age was lower, at 18-30 years (10.5%) or 31-40 years (12.1%). In each month, a similar number of tests were performed, which was related to our contract with the Polish National Health Fund. To allow for a patient scheduled for a procedure being COVID-19 positive and unable to attend, the department asked us to qualify more patients for surgery in each week so as to keep up the standard number of surgical treatments. Our data showed that 1.5% of women and 2.5% of men became COVID-19 positive. The number of infected patients increased gradually from October 2020 to January 2021, related to an increase in morbidity. Conclusions: Of the 1242 patients, 236 (19.0%) women and 231 (18.6%) men were scheduled for a diagnostic procedure, while 310 (25.0%) women and 465 (37.4%) men were tested for elective surgery. Screening tests for SARS-CoV-2 infection in all these patients allowed us to disqualify patients from hospitalization if they had a positive result, thereby limiting the transmission of the virus while allowing us to fulfill our contract.","PeriodicalId":89975,"journal":{"name":"Journal of hearing science","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42094954","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Factors limiting hearing tests in COVID-19 patients are hygiene requirements and the need to use specialized equipment. The objective of the study was to assess changes in hearing thresholds between diagnosis of COVID-19 and convalescence using a mobile app. Material and methods: Patients with mild to moderate COVID-19 symptoms, who were isolating at home were enrolled in the study between 1 September 2020 and 31 January 2021. Subjects answered an online medical survey and self-assessed hearing thresholds using the Hearing Test™ mobile app (e-audiologia.pl). These procedures were done twice, once at the time of diagnosis and again 2 weeks after convalescence. Results: A total of 67 subjects were found eligible for the study. At most frequencies the patients' hearing did not differ between the first and second examinations;however, for 4 kHz, a statistically significant improvement in the hearing threshold was found (p = 0.05). Survey review revealed noticeable improvement (p = 0.001) over time in smell, taste, and nasal congestion. Conclusions: It seems that SARS-CoV-2 infection caused a transient and selective (at 4 kHz) hearing impairment in patients who had had mild to moderate infection. The results suggest that as olfactory function returns after COVID-19, an improvement in hearing can be expected. Solutions based on mobile technology are useful for monitoring the hearing of patients in a pandemic.","PeriodicalId":89975,"journal":{"name":"Journal of hearing science","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42063430","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
