Holland and Stewart (2005) states that screening in children is important so as to follow up on problems identified during infancy as well as to diagnose any, disorders for which effective treatment is available. According to the American Academy of Pediatrics (2004) most children that are identified and recommended for routine screening are screened for a number of common physical conditions, however hearing and vision screening are the two most usually monitored. In fact, due to the subtleness of these two conditions it is difficult for parents and teacher to detect that they exist. Holland and Stewart explained that hearing screening in childhood is used to detect hearing impairment that can result from sensorineural or conductive hearing
