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.
