Abstract

Background: Dysphonia will interfere with communication which will have an impact on social life such as depression, disrupt activities, work and can affect the quality of life. Dysphonia risk factors such as age, sex, duration of illness and etiology will affect the course of it. The purpose of this study was to identify risk factors for with the degree of Voice Handicap Index (VHI) as an indicator of dysphonia patients.Methods: Analytical descriptive study with cross-sectional design in dysphonia patients, the sample was determined as many as 62 who met the inclusion criteria. Quality of life was assessed by the VHI questionnaire. VHI degrees are classified into mild and moderate-severe. Data analysis using chi-square test and multivariate logistic regression. Results:Thirty-two (51.6%) subjects were women. Mean age was 47.26 +12.2. The most common causes of dysphonia (85.5%) were due to organic disorders and laryngopharyngeal reflux (LPR) is the most common cause (37.1%) of all organic dysphonia disorders. Analysis of risk factors for age, gender, etiology of dysphonia and duration of illness with VHI degree were p = 0.282, p =0.76, p= 0.067, p= 0.001, respectively. Duration of illness ≥2 weeks has a 38.3x risk to severity VHI compared to <2 weeks. Conclusion: The duration of illness is a determinan related to of the degree of VHI that quality of life indicator in dysphonia patients. Key Words: Risk factors, Dysphonia, Voice Handicap Index

Abstract

Hearing loss in children may cause social isolation and poor communication skills, potentially affecting mental disorders and quality of life. Hearing aids (HA) provide auditory stimuli that can improve children's speech ability and influence their quality of life. A cross-sectional study in three special schools-B (SLB-B) in Semarang was carried out. A total of 82 children (7-12 years old) with severe hearing loss with or without hearing aids were included. Quality of life was assessed by the Hearing Environments and Reflection on Quality of Life (HEAR-QL) questionnaire. The results showed that 48 (58.54%) subjects used hearing aids, and 34 (41.46%) did not use hearing aids. The average subject's age was 10.77±1.56 years old. Hearing-aid use was associated with a good quality of life of children with hearing loss (p0.001). Good quality of life was found in 68.8% of children with hearing aids compared to only 2.9% in children without hearing aids. Duration of hearing-aid use (p0.001), mother education (p0.006) was associated with good quality of life of children, whereas gender (p=0.49), number of siblings (p=0.06), and socioeconomic status (p=0.63) were not. The quality of life of children who use hearing aids is better than without hearing aids.

Abstract

Introduction: Hearing loss and tinnitus may occur in pilots due to exposure of the high noise level (ranges from 104-110 dB) generated by aircraft/helicopters. In addition, flying time, acoustic trauma, diabetes mellitus, hypertension and smoking are risk factors of hearing loss. Objective: to identify the factors associated with hearing loss in the crew of the Indonesian Army Aviation Center, SemarangMethods: in the cross-sectional research, 114 military helicopter aircrews aged 20-58 years, working for the Army Aviation Center in Semarang were included. The exclusion criteria were history of previous ear surgery, infection of the outer and middle ear, the use of ototoxic drugs (kanamycin, cisplatin and carboplatin). The level of hearing loss and tinitus was assessed by otoscopy and audiometry. Whereas, tinnitus was obtained from the history taking. Data were analyzed using chi-square test and fisher's exact and Yates’s correction.Results: One hundred and fourteen subjects (mean age of 26.54 + 4.72) were included. Several factors such as flight time (p = 0.698), acoustic trauma (p = 0.151), diabetes mellitus (p = 0.596), smoking (p = 0.222), hypertension (p = 0.356) were not associated with sensorineural hearing loss. Several factors such as flight time (p = 0.706), acoustic trauma (p = 0.5160), diabetes mellitus (p = 0.789), smoking (p = 0.495), hypertension (p = 0.112) were not associated with tinnitus.Conclusion: There is no association between flight time, acoustic trauma, diabetes mellitus, hypertension, and smoking and hearing loss.
