Quality of Life in Children with Hearing Impairment: Systematic Review and Meta-analysis

Conclusions
Our analysis reveals that decreased QOL in children with HL is detected in distinct domains of the PedsQL. These domains—school activities and social interactions—are especially important for development and learning. Future work should focus on these aspects of QOL when assessing HL in the pediatric population.
