Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to conduct otoscopic and audiologic exams on pre-school children in Ogbomoso, Nigeria, to detect hearing loss and provide timely interventions.
- The research involved 101 children, revealing a range of ear conditions, with initial otoscopic and audiometric pass rates of 52.4% and 78.7%, which improved significantly after follow-up interventions.
- The findings emphasize the importance of regular ear screenings in schools, as they are currently not routinely done, and advocate for the implementation of these evaluations for early detection of ear diseases and hearing impairments.
