“…The increased prevalence among the elderly (above 60 years) supports other studies from different regions: Santa Maria (RS) 15 , Belo Horizonte (MG) 16 , Montes Claros (MG) 17 and Canoas (RS) 3 . The low number of children evaluated may indicate late diagnosis or intervention, which also occurs in other municipalities such as São Paulo (SP) 18 and Ribeirão Preto (SP) 19 . However, the importance of early detection and the need for investments in the active search for children with the State Newborn Hearing Screening Program.…”

“…In this sense, the network's biggest challenge is to strengthen the longitudinal dimension and decentralization of care by means of decentralized speech-language therapy. This fact may be due to lack of user knowledge about this follow-up (7) or even a lack of active search for patients by the service. The timeliness bias is also worth considering, since users with longer adaptation time may have difficulties to remember the quality of service provided at the time of PSAP fitting.…”
