Screening for hearing loss is an important preventative tool, helping to avoid further complications. Expenditure that supports early child development can reduce future outlay on health care and social services; it can eliminate disability problems, education deficits, and social maladaptation in later adult life.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec id=\"S1463423620000183_as3\" sec-type=\"other\"><jats:title>Methods:<\/jats:title><jats:p>Pure-tone air-conduction hearing thresholds were obtained at 0.5\u20138 kHz. The results of the hearing screening examination were regarded as positive if pure-tone thresholds were higher than 20 dB HL in one or both ears at one or more of the test frequencies. Data were also obtained from follow-up visits of children who failed the initial screening.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec id=\"S1463423620000183_as4\" sec-type=\"other\"><jats:title>Findings:<\/jats:title><jats:p>This study included 452 children aged 7\u201313 years old. Based on audiograms, screening showed that 123 (27.2%) of the children had hearing impairment. The study has important implications for clinical practice and health policy. There is a need for systematic monitoring of hearing status among children of this age, and parents and educators need to be made aware of the significance of hearing loss.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1017\/s1463423620000183","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,6,10]],"date-time":"2020-06-10T08:39:59Z","timestamp":1591778399000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1017\/policypage","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":14,"title":["Results of hearing screening of school-age children in Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan"],"prefix":"10.1017","volume":"21","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4978-1915","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Piotr Henryk","family":"Skar\u017cy\u0144ski","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-6005-8621","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Weronika","family":"\u015awierniak","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-3173-3867","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"El\u017cbieta","family":"Gos","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Irina","family":"Pierzy\u0144ska","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-6663-9331","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Adam","family":"Walkowiak","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-1224-1074","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Katarzyna Beata","family":"Cywka","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Kinga","family":"Wo\u0142ujewicz","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-7141-9851","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Henryk","family":"Skar\u017cy\u0144ski","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"56","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2020,6,10]]},"reference":[{"key":"S1463423620000183_ref42","first-page":"97","volume-title":"Handbook of clinical audiology","author":"Yantis","year":"2002"},{"key":"S1463423620000183_ref39","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/0017896912471049"},{"key":"S1463423620000183_ref37","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1001\/archotol.130.5.556"},{"key":"S1463423620000183_ref36","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ijporl.2010.12.024"},{"key":"S1463423620000183_ref40","unstructured":"World Health Organization (2019) Deafness and hearing loss [Online].
