Although half of all deafness and hearing impairment is avoidable, an estimated 278 million people worldwide are living with disabling hearing impairment (moderate or worse level of hearing loss in the better hearing ear). Many more have mild hearing loss and/or ear diseases. One quarter of hearing impairment begins during childhood, and 80% of all deaf and hearing impaired people live in low and middle income countries. These problems can be life-long and sometimes life-threatening; they may have profound effects on: inter-personal communication, education, employment prospects, social relationships and through stigmatization. They produce substantial economic burdens on countries. Some of the most effective and cost-effective interventions against ear and hearing problems can be implemented at the primary level by trained primary ear and hearing care (PEHC) workers or primary health care (PHC) workers or their equivalents. Used on a large scale, these interventions will have a major impact on the burden of ear disease and hearing loss. However most developing countries do not have PEHC workers and the topic is hardly addressed in the training of PHC workers. The Primary Ear and Hearing Care Training Resource manuals provide practical information and guidance and can be used as part of a training course, stand-alone training module or in a self-taught manner. They are designed to be useful to a wide range of primary health care personnel. The manuals can also be used to help communities understand common causes of deafness and hearing impairment and ways to prevent and/or treat the conditions.

A national ear and hearing care strategy should seek to reduce the prevalence, incidence and impact of hearing loss in the community, through public health approaches that are integrated with the country's health system and service delivery. The development of a holistic and integrated strategic plan is the first step towards provision of effective and sustainable ear and hearing care services. This manual provides guidance on developing and implementing such a strategy. It outlines the planning process, with a special focus on practical aspects, recognizing that each country has its own particular priorities and available resources. It is one of a series of publications on planning and monitoring of ear and hearing care services.

"Many causes of hearing loss can be prevented or mitigated. In addition, people who develop hearing loss can benefit from appropriate and timely interventions. The profile and causes of hearing loss vary greatly across and within regions, as does the availability of infrastructure and resources to address it. Hence, it is essential that each country develop its own strategic plan to deal with hearing loss and its causes. A national ear and hearing care strategy should seek to reduce the prevalence, incidence and impact of hearing loss in the community, through public health approaches that are integrated with the country's health system and service delivery. The development of a holistic and integrated strategic plan is the first step towards 'provision of effective and sustainable ear and hearing care services.' This manual provides guidance on developing and implementing such a strategy. The manual can be used in combination with the Ear and Hearing Care Situation Analysis Tool, which provides a detailed framework for an initial situation analysis. The planning process for a national ear and hearing care starategy comprises the following phases."--Page [6]

The Primary ear and hearing care training manual is intended for training health workers and doctors providing services at primary care health facilities.

It is estimated that while more than 400 million people worldwide could benefit from hearing aid use alone, only 17% get to use these devices. This gap of 83% poses a substantial global challenge as unaddressed hearing loss is a leading cause of morbidity with an annual global cost of 980 billion international dollars. The WHO Hearing aid service delivery approaches for low- and middle-income settings is intended for use by people who plan to implement a national or subnational community level programme for the delivery of hearing aid services. It provides guidance on important factors to be considered when developing a community-level programme for the delivery of hearing aid services in low- and middle-income settings through trained non-specialists. This document targets 2 population groups: - children aged older than 5 years; and, - adults aged 18 years and older. The approaches provide directions on who should be fitted with a hearing aid; the process of assessment; the tools to be used; and the protocol for follow-up. Target audience - ear and hearing care coordinators or focal points within ministries of health. - public health planners. - nongovernmental organizations or civil society entities that provide ear and hearing care.

Hearing Better: Understanding Your Hearing And Ear Care Options is a simple and informative overview of a person's hearing health alternatives. It introduces the different ear professionals, explains their qualifications and the services they render. The book also provides basic information about ear and hearing problems, treatment options, hearing aids and other ways to compensate for a hearing loss. By being more informed, people can better participate in the decision-making about their own hearing health. Hearing Better will also be of value to many of those who previously had a complete ear and hearing evaluation. In the era of HMOs and managed care, physicians rarely have time to discuss all of the problems associated with hearing loss. Hearing Better can fill in some of the gaps. Additionally, new advances in the treatment of hearing loss are constantly taking place. Some of the procedures and treatments discussed in this book were not available just a few years ago. Hearing Better provides an overview of these and other procedures currently available to correct or compensate for a hearing loss. Hearing Better is a "must-read" for anyone considering buying or replacing hearing aids.
