    Area of Science:

    • Pediatric Otolaryngology
    • Audiology
    • Medical Education

    Background:

    • Deaf children require specialized otologic care.
    • Existing otolaryngology training may not adequately prepare residents for this patient population.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To assess the experience level of otolaryngologists in treating deaf children.
    • To evaluate the adequacy of resident education in deafness-related topics.

    Main Methods:

    • A survey was distributed to 113 chairmen of otolaryngology departments.
    • Data collected focused on resident training and physician experience regarding pediatric deafness.

    Main Results:

    • Survey results indicate a general inexperience among otolaryngologists in managing deaf children.
    • Resident education was found to be marginal in critical areas concerning deafness.

    Conclusions:

    • Otolaryngology residency curricula should incorporate more didactic work on deafness.
    • Improved training is essential to better meet the needs of deaf patients.
