The care of deafness in children is difficult and the relevance of interventions is difficult to evaluate based on audiometric measurements alone.
Generic pediatric quality of life tools have been validated and used, among other things, to assess the quality of life of children with deafness. However, these non-specific tools do not make it possible to precisely target which factors and interventions are the most important for the quality of life in this population.
Achieving a score to monitor the quality of life objectively over time is fundamental to verify the effectiveness of interventions, and assess the impact on the child. There is currently no validated test in French for any of these uses and populations.
The objective of the study is to adapt the questionnaires "PEACH", "SSQ child (SSQ-C)" and "SSQ parents (SSQ-P)" to the French child, and statistically measure their internal and external validity by comparing them to a control group.
The validation of these three tests (PEACH, SSQ-P, SSQ-C) would make it possible to assess the hearing performance and quality of life of almost the entire pediatric population, for use in both clinical and academic practice.
Neonatal sensorineural hearing loss is a frequent pathology, affecting around 800 newborns per year in France, or an incidence of 0.8 to 1.3 per 1000 births, comparable to other industrialized countries. It can affect the development of speech and language and lead to impaired quality of life.
Studies have shown that children with hearing loss score lower on general quality-of-life measurement tools, compared to their normal-hearing peers. A poorer quality of life in patients with sensorineural hearing loss may also reflect physical, academic, social or emotional difficulties. They are also exposed to an increased risk of poor development of language and social skills, as well as an increased risk of developing psychiatric pathologies.

The Parents' Evaluation of Aural/Oral Performance of Children (PEACH) is a hetero-evaluation score used to study the quality of a child's communication from an early age (from 4 months in some studies) and up to 13 years. This tool is specifically designed for children with hearing aids or a cochlear implant. It has been translated into Swedish and Spanish and used in numerous international publications.
The Speech, Spatial and Qualities of Hearing Scale (SSQ) is an adult self-assessment score assessing, in three categories, the performance of speech comprehension, spatial hearing and hearing quality. It is widely used internationally in its adult version.
This adult score has been adapted and used for the pediatric population in a hetero-evaluation score by parents (SSQ-P) from 5 years old, and a simplified score (SSQ-C) usable by children> 11 years.
In addition, the authors of the adult SSQ also prepared and validated a Handicap questionnaire to target the impact of hearing loss on quality of life, and integrated into the SSQ self-assessment.
