Hearing care in low-resourced and humanitarian settings: findings from a pilot study in South Sudan
Hearing loss poses a significant health issue with complex genetic, environmental, and disease-related causes. Our collaboration initiated accessible, affordable hearing solutions to serve as a framework for hearing healthcare in resource-deprived settings. Further investigation is warranted for scaling this model.
