TLDR
Whereas the effect of age of hearing aid fitting on child outcomes was weak, a younger age at cochlear implant switch-on was significantly associated with better outcomes for children with cochLear implants at 3 years of age.
Abstract
Objective:To address the question of whether, on a population level, early detection and amplification improve outcomes of children with hearing impairment.Design:All families of children who were born between 2002 and 2007, and who presented for hearing services below 3 years of age at Australian H

Language Growth in Children with Mild to Severe Hearing Loss who Received Early Intervention by 3 Months or 6 Months of Age

TL;DR: This study is among the first to provide evidence to support the potential effects of very early intervention by 3 months of age and documents the positive impact of EI on language outcomes in children with congenital HL.

The Effects of Early Intervention on Language Growth after age 3 for Children with Permanent Hearing Loss

TL;DR: Children receiving EI exhibited a lasting advantage in the acquisition of spoken language over children who did not have access to EI, and made greater progress relative to age-matched peers than children without EI.

Language of Early- and Later-identified Children With Hearing Loss

TL;DR: Significantly better language development was associated with early identification of hearing loss and early intervention and the variable on which the two groups differed must be considered a potential explanation for the language advantage documented in the earlier-identified group.
