About the trial
What the trial wants to find out
This is a qualitative study to investigate children and their care-givers knowledge about the underlying aetiology of the childrens hearing loss. Both children and care-givers are given forms with questions about the type and level of hearing loss, if they know the cause and if it matters to them. This is to better understand the level of knowledge in both children and their care-givers about different causes of hearing loss. This will help to develop better clinical tools and routines of informing families about causal investigations in the future.
The 2 groups in the trial
- Group A
Consists of children with bilateral sensorineural hearing loss and their care-givers
- Group B
Consists of both children and care-givers who answer forms anonymously.
