Improving Aboriginal Children's Access to Better Ear and Hearing Health through Telehealth ENT

土著儿童患慢性耳部疾病的比率是世界上最高的，如果他们生活在农村地区，由于文化问题和长途旅行的限制，他们获得耳鼻喉专科护理的机会有限。这导致儿童出现听力损失，而这本来可以通过早期耳鼻喉科治疗来预防。这项以新南威尔士州为基地的土著领导的远程保健研究将为所有澳大利亚土著创造一种有效的、文化上适当的听力保健模式。

Aboriginal children experience the highest rates of chronic ear disease in the world, with access to specialist ENT care limited by cultural issues as well as long travel distances, if they live in rural areas. This results in children developing hearing loss that could have been prevented with early childhood ENT treatment. This Indigenous led telehealth research, based in NSW, will create an efficient, culturally appropriate hearing health care model for all Indigenous Australians.
