Abstract:

Thesis (MTech (Electrical Engineering))--Peninsula Technikon, Cape Town, 2000.<br>This document gives a report on the research that has been done to simulate hearing loss. People working with the hearing impaired have no idea of what and/or how the hearing impaired person hears sound. An instrument that enables a normal hearing person to hear what a hearing impaired person hears, is referred to in this document as a Hearing Loss Simulator (HLS). An investigation of the feasibility and practicability of the abovementioned instrument, has led to the development of the HLS by making use of

Abstract:

Magister Artium (Social Work) - MA(SW)<br>Overwhelming evidence suggests that 90% of children with a hearing loss are born to hearing parents. Research indicates that often these hearing parents are ill-informed about the cause and type of hearing loss their child has, leading the hearing parents to feelings of grief and disempowerment. Many hearing parents at the time of the diagnosis experience emotional turmoil as the diagnosis is often unexpected, resulting in a plethora of questions asked. The research approach for the study was qualitative in nature as it set out to explore and describe

Abstract:

Childhood disability increases parental stress. Research on the laterality of childhood hearing loss or presence of a cochlear implant(s) as it relates to stress in hearing parents was limited before this study. The purpose of this quantitative study was to identify relationships between the independent variables of laterality (unilateral and bilateral) of a childhood hearing loss or presence of a cochlear implant(s) and the dependent variable of stress in hearing parents. Family systems theory provided a framework for viewing each member of the family as a part of a whole, whose life events,

This phenomenological study investigated the nature and extent of the support parents received during IEP development. The study was informed by Bronfenbrenner's ecological systems theory. Participants, located in a Northeastern state, were 10 hearing parents of children who had been diagnosed with hearing loss at birth and were between ages 5 and 12. Data were in-depth interviews that were analyzed, coded, and organized into themes using an inductive approach to analysis informed by Hatch. Results indicated that parents believed they needed more guidance on what to expect during the first IEP

Abstract:

As a group, children with hearing loss show slower language development than their peers with normal hearing. Age of intervention has a profound impact on language outcomes but data examining the correlation between degree of hearing loss and language outcomes are variable. Two approaches are used in the current study to examine this variability. In the first approach, we look at aided speech audibility as a potentially better predictor of communication outcomes than pure tone average. In the second approach, we look at a previously unexplored system in this population: working memory. We enro

Abstract:

Cisplatin is an effective chemotherapeutic agent used for a variety of solid organ malignancies in children and adults. However, its clinical use is limited by the high incidence of cisplatin-induced ototoxicity (CIO), which can affect up to 40-60% of children treated. To date, the genetic basis for CIO has been studied with only focused candidate-gene approaches. Here we report the findings of the first genome-wide association study (GWAS) of cisplatin-induced ototoxicity in children. We examined 738,432 genetics markers in a discovery cohort of 282 Canadian paediatric patients treated wi

Abstract:

Children with hearing loss have limited auditory access to their native language and struggle to develop appropriate language skills. These children consistently demonstrate less complex oral language output, smaller vocabulary inventories, and delays in overall communicative proficiency. With the extensive implications hearing loss has on language development, a child with hearing loss requires immediate access to appropriate and effective intervention to address deficits and curb long-term language delays. However, there is a paucity of research investigating the effects of various language

Abstract:

Na população com Desordem do Espectro da Neuropatia Auditiva (DENA) e usuária de Implante Coclear (IC), as características inerentes a este tipo de alteração auditiva podem determinar dificuldades adicionais para o desenvolvimento de habilidades auditivas mais complexas, tal como a percepção dos sons da fala na presença de ruído. Deste modo, o objetivo deste estudo foi investigar a percepção de fala na presença de ruído em crianças com DENA usuárias de IC. Foi realizado um estudo prospectivo longitudinal no Centro de Pesquisas Audiológicas (CPA) do Hospital de Anomalias Craniofaciais da Univer

Abstract:

Nos últimos anos houve um grande avanço na tecnologia de processamento de sinal do Implante Coclear (IC), mas ainda há uma limitação a ser superada que é a percepção de fala no ruído. Este dispositivo passou a ser indicado para habilitação e reabilitação de um grupo com características audiológicas e eletrofisiológica específica, denominada de Desordem do Espectro da Neuropatia Auditiva (DENA). As características inerentes a este tipo de alteração auditiva podem determinar dificuldades adicionais para o desenvolvimento de habilidades auditivas mais complexas, tal como a percepção dos sons da f
