The school hearing screening programme (SHSP) effectively detects hearing loss affordably. However, practices vary widely, indicating a need for standardized protocols in paediatric audiology.

Area of Science:

  • Paediatric audiology
  • Public health screening programs

Background:

  • Current paediatric audiology services and screening programs are undergoing review.
  • The school hearing screening programme (SHSP) is a key component of early detection.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the current practices and effectiveness of the SHSP.
  • To identify areas for improvement in school-based hearing screening.

Main Methods:

  • A questionnaire-based survey was employed to gather data.
  • The study focused on the operational aspects and performance metrics of the SHSP.

Main Results:

  • The SHSP demonstrates cost-effectiveness in identifying previously undetected hearing impairments.
  • Significant variability exists in the implementation of SHSP across different services.
