Although we would like it to be otherwise, for obvious reasons, life sometimes shows us realities that we would prefer not to see. This is especially true when young children are affected, as they do not have the same ability as adults to defend themselves. But all difficulties can be combated and even overcome, as is the subject we want to talk to you about today: the use of pediatric hearing aids to help those children with hearing impairments.

 

Children's or paediatric hearing aids exist to alleviate one of the unpleasant realities we talked about at the beginning of this article: it is estimated that hearing impairment affects about 2% of children, and one in 1000 can suffer permanent hearing loss.

 

Even without going to this extreme, failure to treat a hearing impairment can seriously affect an infant's ability to speak and understand language. This is often accompanied by poor school performance, marginalisation by peers, social isolation and emotional problems.

 

In many of these cases, the solution lies in the use of a children's hearing aid. While it is also true that wearing a hearing aid can be a little tricky for a child (for example, on an aesthetic level, at an age when teasing about physical differences is not at all exceptional), there is now a wide variety of pediatric hearing aids that are aesthetically discreet and easy to use.

 

As a general rule, the most suitable hearing aids for small children should have a followed by functionalities. For example, they should have buttons large enough for a child to use, and at the same time they should have safety measures so that they are not damaged, such as battery holders with an opening only for parents.

 

Depending on the age of the child, the hearing aid should also be especially resistant to shocks. Daily life should be as normal as possible, and this obviously includes play and leisure. In such circumstances, a shot or a fall is inevitable, and the hearing aid must be prepared for such eventualities.

 

A very important element is the fact that a hearing aid should not be submerged, it is therefore not usable either in the bathroom or in the swimming pool. However, there are children's hearing aids with a special coating that protects electronic elements from sweat or small amounts of water.

 

In the end, a children's hearing aid should do the same functions as an adult's hearing aid, but making life easier for the little ones in the house and ensuring that their life will be as normal as possible. With this in mind, we invite you to take a look at our collection of pediatric hearing aids, and if in doubt, contact us without hesitation.
