Objectives: School-based hearing screening serves as a critical resource for children in rural areas to be screened and connected to hearing healthcare. Telemedicine interventions in schools have shown promise in connecting children to providers; however, there is limited research on systematic adaptation and deployment of telemedicine in rural schools. Obtaining community perspectives and preferences on school-based telemedicine hearing evaluation is essential to ensure such interventions are deployable in a rural context.

In the recent two decades it became possible to compensate severe-to-profound hearing loss using cochlear implants (CIs). The data from implanted children demonstrate that hearing and language acquisition is well-possible within an early critical period of 3 years, however, the earlier the access to sound is provided, the better outcomes can be expected. While the clinical priority is providing deaf and hard of hearing children with access to spoken language through hearing aids and CIs as early as possible, for most deaf children this access is currently in the second or third year of life.

Objective: Evaluate the audiological outcomes of the Cochlear Osia 2 Bone Conduction System implanted in children ages 5-11 years old.
Design: A pivotal, prospective, open-label, multicentre clinical trial to expand access to the Osia 2 system to children ages 5-11 years old.
Study Sample: Children aged 5-11 years old who presented with either (1) a conductive or mixed hearing loss where the pure tone average bone conduction threshold (measured at 500, 1000, 2000, and 3000 Hz) was ≤ 55 dB HL or (2) single-sided deafness where the ear to be implanted had a profound sensorineural hearing loss and the pure tone average air conduction threshold (measured at 500, 1000, 2000, and 3000 Hz) in the contralateral ear was ≤ 20 dB HL.

Objectives: The objective of this scoping review was to examine the developmental impact of limited usable hearing unilaterally (LUHU) and surgical and non-surgical technology outcomes specific to infants and young children who have LUHU.
Design: The Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) Model of Evidence-Based Healthcare provided a framework. Covidence software was used to manage the articles.
