Resumo: |
Objective: To characterize and to argue the application of a protocol of hearing aid adaptation verification in the in children as well as the impact of the acoustic characteristics in speech perception tasks adequacy. Method: Ten children aging from 3yr to 11yr 3mo were enrolled in this study. All children with bilateral cochlear hearing loss (average four-frequency hearing loss: from moderate to profound) and wearing hearing aid; derived from public hearing health care service in Bahia. The children had been submitted to the following procedures: pure tone air and bone conduction thresholds; real-ear coupler difference (RECD); verification with real-ear measurement equipment: coupler gain/output and insertion gain to actually compare the measurement in the child s ear with the correct prescribed for the child by software DSL [i/o] v4.1 and procedures of perception and production of speech: The Six-Sound Test Ling (2006) and Word Associations will be Syllabe Perception (WASP) by Koch (1999). Results: the performance of the hearing aid electro acoustic characteristics measured by 2cc coupler, which was the children real situation when they arrived, was compatible with under amplification and after proceeding the alteration according with the prescribed data provided by the DSL [i/o] software it was possible to verify, trough objective and speech perception procedures, the prescription adequacy. Conclusion: the use of a protocol within pediatric hearing aid adaptation, which includes: procedures of verification trough objective and speech performance measures is very important to the hearing health care services results |
