Prelingual Hearing Loss and the Relationship with Delayed Language Development

Authors

Keywords:

prelingual hearing loss, language development-delay, hearing impairment.

Abstract

Introduction: Prelingual hearing loss is that which comes before the appearance of language. The delay in language development is nothing more than the delay in the acquisition of the different stages of the chronological development of children's language.

Objective: To prove how prelingual hearing loss affects language development.

Methods: A search was carried out in Pubmed, LILACS, SciELO and Google academic databases from December 2019 to May 2021.

Analysis and synthesis of information: Language is a code or system of signs to communicate and represent reality. Hearing disability affects all levels of development, considerably undermines development concerning language, knowledge and learning capacity.

Conclusions: Once the diagnosis is made, early intervention is very important. The family and the multidisciplinary team play a fundamental role in the correction of hearing, as well as in the rehabilitation and/or habilitation of language, aimed at achieving an adequate insertion of the child in society.
