ABSTRACT
The problem of hearing loss and deafness in children is of great social importance due to the increasing incidence of hearing impairments. According to WHO forecasts, by 2020, the number of people with socially significant hearing defects is expected to increase by more than 30%. The article presents the methods of hearing loss diagnostics in preschool children by means of voice-threshold audiometry, tympanometry, acoustic reflexometry and game audiometry, which makes it possible to detect the minimal auditory disorders. Electroacoustic correction of hearing was conducted by means of advanced digital programmable BTE hearing aids (CA), Oticon (Denmark), with customized inserts.
