Infant hearing loss: the necessity for early identification.
Boletín de la Asociación Médica de Puerto Rico 2000 September
There has been controversy in the health professions about the necessity for newborn infant hearing screening. It is well accepted that patient history or a birth that places the infant in the high-risk registry (HHR) can identify 50% of all infants born with permanent bilateral hearing loss. Two major factors which have been cited as reasons for not screening the well-baby nursery have been poor cost effectiveness and the lack of documentation as to the benefits derived from early identification and intervention. Recent technological developments and published data are presented which indicate that economical well-baby hearing screening can be done in any setting, and that the language acquisition of the infant is permanently affected if the intervention is not done in the first six months after birth.
