Resumo: The objective of this study was to verify the hearing alterations and their frequencies in children aged 7-9 years old from a public elementary school in São Luís, Maranhão. The study was carried out from May to July, 2004, with 101 first grade scholars, 52 boys and 49 girls. The scholars were evaluated by means of otoscopic, audiometric and tympanometric procedures at the Medical Dental Integrated Clinic. The tests involving 202 ears demonstrated that 27% (54) of these had cerumen impaction. One scholar showed perforated tympanic membrane (0.5%). Hearing within the normal limits was observed in 75.7% (153) of the ears, while 24.3% (49) presented hearing alterations. The most frequent alterations were the conductive hearing loss, in 15% (31) of the ears, followed by the sensorineural hearing loss, in 6% (13). Mixed hearing loss occurred in 2.5% (5). Imitation testing involving 201 ears showed altered tympanic membrane: type B curve in 8.5% (17) and type C curve in 9.5% (19). There were no statistical associations between hearing impairments and gender or between hearing impairments and laterality of the ear. It was concluded that hearing evaluation of school children is necessary for the early identification and correction of its multiple consequences.

O estudo foi realizado de maio a julho de 2004, com 101 estudantes da 1ª série, 52 meninos e 49 meninas. Procedeu-se a avaliação das escolas por meio de otoscopia, audiometria e timpanometria, na Clínica Integrada Médica Odontológica. Os exames com os 202 ouvidos demonstraram que 27% (54) destes apresentaram rolha de cerume. Um aluno apresentou membrana timpânica perfurada (0,5%). Audição dentro de limites normais foi observada em 75,7% (153) dos ouvidos, enquanto que 24,3% (49) apresentaram alterações auditivas. As alterações mais freqüentes foram a perda auditiva condutiva, em 15% (31) dos ouvidos, seguida da perda auditiva neurosensorial, em 6% (13). Perda auditiva mista ocorreu em 2,5% (5). A imitânciometria feita com 201 ouvidos demonstrou membranas timpânicas alteradas: curva tipo B em 8,5% (17) e curva tipo C em 9,5% (19). Não ocorreram associações estatísticas entre as alterações auditivas e gênero e nem entre as alterações auditivas e lateralidade da orelha. Concluiu-se que a avaliação auditiva em crianças na escola é necessária para a identificação e a correção precoce das suas múltiplas conseqüências.Universidade de Fortaleza2012-01-04info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion"Peer-reviewed Article""Avaliado pelos pares""Avaliado pelos pares"application/pdfhttps://ojs.unifor.br/RBPS/article/view/101810.5020/1018Brazilian Journal in Health Promotion; Vol. 20 No. 3 (2007); 155-160Revista Brasileña en Promoción de la Salud; Vol. 20 Núm. 3 (2007); 155-160Revista Brasileira em Promoção da Saúde; v. 20 n. 3 (2007); 155-1601806-1230reponame:Revista Brasileira em Promoção da Saúdeinstname:Universidade de Fortaleza (Unifor)instacron:UFORporhttps://ojs.unifor.br/RBPS/article/view/1018/2179Silva, Barbara Tereza Fonseca daMonte, Márcia de OliveiraAragão, Vânia Maria de FariasSilva, Barbara Tereza Fonseca dainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2012-01-10T12:18:48Zoai:ojs.ojs.unifor.br:article/1018Revistahttps://periodicos.unifor.br/RBPS/oai1806-12301806-1222opendoar:2012-01-10T12:18:48Revista Brasileira em Promoção da Saúde - Universidade de Fortaleza (Unifor)false
