ENT Screening in #Cambodia

ENT screening for children at Chroy Takeo Primary School located in Koh Thom.

Children identified with ear disease were treated 'on the spot' or will be followed up for specialist care.

Up to two million people (14% of the Cambodian population) are affected by hearing loss to some degree. The World Health Organisation state that half of all cases could have been prevented through primary prevention; and a significant proportion of those affected by hearing loss could benefit from medicine, surgery and hearing devices to restore their ability to hear.
