Objective:
To investigate why the ideal objective cannot be met after deaf children are fitted with hearing aids.
Method:

Result:
Two children were found to have otitis media with effusion and myringitis respectively. All hearing aids were matched improperly with inappropriate fit.
Conclusion:
After deaf children are fitted with hearing aids, they should be followed-up on a regular base in order to monitor their hearing and to check whether they wear the hearing aids properly with a proper fit. All people in the field of aural rehabilitation for deaf children should realize the importance of the correct way to wear hearing aids with correct adjustment.
