abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To investigate why the ideal objective cannot be met after deaf children are fitted with hearing aids.
  
  
  METHODS
  Complete audiological assessment and hearing aid check were done on 13 deaf children filled with hearing aids.
  
  
  RESULTS
  Two children were found to have otitis media with effusion and myringitis respectively. All hearing aids were matched improperly with inappropriate fit.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  After deaf children are fitted with hearing aids, they should be followed-up on a regular base in order to monitor their hearing and to check whether they wear the hearing aids properly with a proper fit. All people in the field of aural rehabilitation for deaf children should realize the importance of the correct way to wear hearing aids with correct adjustment.
