Summary

Balance disorders in children are poorly known, underestimated, and rarely assessed. Technologies to assess balance in children are almost non-existent, apart from a few exceptions. Such technologies are routinely used in adults for some decades, and are of considerable contribution in the diagnosis and treatment of adults balance disorders.

The aim of this study is :

1. to assess objectively children balance disorders.
2. to provide technologies suitable for children balance assessement.
3. to study children balance disorders suffering from sensorineural hearing loss.
