Urgent hearing diagnostic device for babies!

An audiometer is a special medical device designed to measure a person's hearing. It is used to assess acoustic sensitivity in response to various sound signals. An audiometer helps to identify hearing problems by determining the range in which a person can distinguish sounds.

This device is of great importance for the early diagnosis of hearing problems in children, as it helps to detect possible abnormalities or hearing loss in time, which allows you to start treatment or rehabilitation as soon as possible. The audiometer provides doctors and speech therapists with valuable data to develop individualized hearing correction programs and improve the quality of life of children with hearing impairments. After all, in case of hearing loss, the sooner the deviations are detected, the better.

Such a device is very necessary for the Sloviansk Children's Hospital. For security reasons, we cannot share the full name of the medical institution. However, despite the full-scale invasion and insecurity in the region, this hospital continuously provided medical care to the community and delivered babies. In 2022, the perinatal center in Kramatorsk was closed and the maternity ward in Lyman was destroyed, so obstetric and gynecological services have been provided at this hospital since then. In view of this, the purchase of an audiometer is a very important issue. In addition, long-term exposure to the sounds of explosions can cause permanent hearing loss and other serious problems with the acoustic function of the ear.

In 2022 alone, 222 children were born in this hospital! Life goes on, and we must ensure that our children develop fully.
