Abstract

ABSTRACT

Background: Hearing loss is an impairment or inability of hearing, which is a threshold value of hearing more than 40 decibels (dB) in adults or more than 30 decibels (dB) in children. Hearing loss can result in decreased learning achievement at school, problems in communication, psychological problems, and if complications have occurred, it will cost more for the treatment.

Aim : This study aims to determine characteristics of hearing loss in children aged 13-14 years.

Methods : This study is a descriptive study with a total sample of 61 students taken by simple random sampling method from a total of 599 students aged 13-14 years. The data were obtained from the questionnaires and physical examination of the ear. Simple auditory function was examined using a tuning fork.

Results : The results in this study indicate that the largest group is 14 years old and male gender (52%). It was found that 13 students (21%) had a tympanic membrane and 1 student (2%) had a tympanic membrane perforated in the right ear. In the hearing function, it was found that 1 student with a conductive type disorder. From the questionnaire on the risk factors for hearing loss, there were the use of cotton buds for 53 students (87%), routine checkups for 1 student (2%), use of headsets for 48 students (79%), allergic rhinitis 9 students (15%), chronic tonsillitis 17 students (28%) and ISPA 1 student (2%).

Conclusion : The percentage of hearing loss is 2%, the type of hearing loss is CHL (Conductive Hearing Loss). Percentage of risk factors for hearing loss using cotton buds (87%), headset use (79%), allergic rhinitis (15%), chronic tonsillitis (28%), ARI (1%), routine check-ups (1%).
