| Abstract: | This scoping review explores the impact of childhood hearing impairment on parental stress and coping mechanisms, focusing on the last decade's literature. Examining 643 articles from various databases, including Scopus, PubMed, CINAHL-EBSCOhost, and Cochrane library, 27 relevant articles were identified. Following PRISMA-ScR guidelines, the current scoping review identified six themes: Theoretical background, Child's behaviour problems and familyattitude toward cochlear implants, Emotional disturbances, Parental stress and coping, and Intervention-based studies. The findings highlight a scarcity of qualitative, theoretical, and intervention-focused studies for parents. Aligning with SDG 3, good health and well-being, the study advocates a holistic approach. Prioritising individual psychological needs, understanding family dynamics, and enhancing societal support systems aims to empower parents and contribute to the global commitment to promoting health and well-being, particularly for those navigating the challenges of hearing impairment. Implications of the study are also discussed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
