About the Department of Pediatric Hearing Disorders at Samitivej Hospital Bangkok

The Department of Pediatric Hearing Disorders at the Samitivej Hospital Bangkok specializes in the diagnostics, treatment and restoration of hearing and speech. Children of all age groups (from infants to school-age children) are offered hearing testing using otoacoustic emission and/or SLAEP technique. The department's doctors have in their arsenal various effective treatment methods, which are selected individually for each young patient. The Chief Physician of the department is Dr. med. Greetha Moungthong.

Depending on the clinical case, the department's specialists use hearing aids or cochlear implants for the treatment of hearing loss. The department's medical service range also includes follow-up monitoring of patients with hearing aids in order to adapt the hearing aid to suit the needs of a particular patient. Thus, the team of highly qualified department's doctors makes every effort to provide patients with the best diagnostics, treatment and follow-up monitoring.

The department's clinical focuses include:

  • Hearing screening for infants and school-age children using otoacoustic emission and/or SLAEP technique
  • Hearing screening in children between the ages of six months and three years using visually reinforcement audiometry
  • Hearing screening in children older than three years using pure tone audiometry
  • Hearing screening in children using auditory evoked potential testing (for example, in children with autism or other mental problems)
  • Hearing acuity testing in children using auditory steady state response 
  • Inner ear function testing using electrocochleography
  • Middle ear function testing using tympanometry
  • Selection of the right hearing aids for children and adults
