A importância do diagnóstico precoce da perda auditiva para o desenvolvimento da linguagem

Year: 2026
Type: article
Abstract: This study aimed to analyse the importance of early diagnosis of hearing loss for child language development through a literature review. The search was conducted between August and September two thousand and twenty-six in the selected databases. The results indicate that Universal Newborn Hearing Screening is a fundamental milestone, but alone insufficient to ensure linguistic development, with diagnostic confirmation and timely intervention by six months of age being the main predictor factors of better oral language, grammar, and vocabulary outcomes. It is concluded that the continuity of the care pathway and integrated speech-language pathology intervention are essential to optimize communicative outcomes in children with hearing loss.
