Description

The occurrence of hearing loss and related ear anomalies in individuals with Down syndrome has been well documented in the literature. As the most commonly occurring chromosomal abnormality, the effective management of otologic and audiologic issues is crucial. The purpose of this project is to better understand the clinical course of audiologic management in children with Down syndrome, and to provide recommendations for appropriate and timely interventions.
