Résumé

Introducción: La hipoacusia es una condición prevalente en adultos mayores. Sin embargo, la baja adherencia al uso del audífono representa una realidad. Objetivo: Evaluar la utilidad de un programa de intervención para mejorar adherencia en pacientes con hipoacusia mayores de 65 años usuarios de audífono. Material y método: Ensayo clínico aprobado por Comité de Ética. Se incluyeron pacientes beneficiarios del GES de hipoacusia. Se evaluó adherencia al audífono en un corte a 6 meses. Resultados: Fueron evaluados 180 pacientes, correspondiendo a 90 pacientes control y 90 intervenidos. La adherencia global al uso del audífono fue de 78%. No hubo diferencia en los grupos por sexo, edad, ni grado de hipoacusia. El promedio de horas diarias de uso en el grupo control fue de 6,9 horas, comparado con el del grupo intervenido que fue 9,6 horas (p <0,0001). Hubo una asociación significativa entre la intervención y la regularidad del uso del audífono, con 80% de pacientes que lo usaban regularmente en el grupo intervenido contra el 8,9% en el grupo control (p <0,001). Discusión: La intervención implementada ha demostrado excelentes resultados preliminares en términos de tiempo de uso del audífono, por lo que sería de utilidad implementaria como parte de la política GES y difundir su uso.


Introduction: Hearing loss is a prevalent condition in elderly population. However, the low adherence to hearing aids is a fact. Aim: To evaluate the utility of a standardized counselling program in elderly patients with hearing loss. Material and methods: A clinical trial was carried out, approved by the Hospital ethics committee. Patients with 65years and older with hearing loss were included. We assessed adherence at a follow-up of 6 months. Results: 180 patients were evaluated, corresponding to 90 control and 90 rehabilitated patients. The overall adherence of hearing aids use was 78%. There was no difference in sex, age, and level of hearing loss between groups. The average daily hours of use in the control group was 6.9 hours, compared with the 9.6 hours in the intervention group (p <0.0001). There was a significant association between the intervention and regular hearing aid use, with 80% of patients who used it regularly in the intervention group compared with 8.9% in the control group (p <0.001). Discussion: The intervention implemented has shown excellent preliminary results in terms of time of use of the hearing aid. It would be useful to include this intervention in the hearing loss national public policy.

Résumé

Congenital hearing loss is the total or partial inability to hear sounds through the ears. It is the most common disability in newborns in Chile and worldwide, and is a permanent condition. The direct impact on children who are not adequately diagnosed is the alteration in acquisition of language and cognitive skills and a decline in their social and school insertion, jeopardizing their professional and potentially productive life. Universal screening programs for hearing loss are essential for the diagnosis, since 50% of infants with hearing loss have no known risk factor. Screening before one month of age, confirmation before 3 months, and effective intervention before 6 months, allows the development of these children as if they had normal hearing. In Chile there is a selective program of screening for infants aged less than 32 weeks or 1,500 grams, as part of Explicit Health Guarantees, but it covers only 0.9% of newborns per year. Therefore, a large majority of children remain without diagnosis. The aim of this review is to compare the situation in Chile with other countries, raising the need to move towards a universal neonatal hearing loss screening program, and propose necessary conditions in terms of justification and implementation of a universal screening public policy.
