Outcomes of neonatal screening for hearing loss by otoacoustic emission.
AIM To assess universal neonatal screening for bilateral hearing impairments averaging 40 dBHL or worse in the better ear, using transient evoked otoacoustic emission screening (TEOAE) testing. METHODS A three year cohort (14,353 infants born from January 1992 to 1995) was screened and subsequently followed up by hearing surveillance methods, including a distraction test screen from 7 months ...
متن کاملOtoacoustic emission latency and hearing loss
Millions of people have the perception of sounds when no external sound is present: for many of them the“TINNITUS” (medical word from Latin) or “ACUFENE” (from Greek) is the trouble so severe to alter their quality of lifedeeply. Starting from 1998 we are carrying on with success an integral program of diagnosis, medical and rehabilitant treatment of the Tinnitus with a new multi therap...
متن کاملNeonatal Hearing Screening Using Transient Evoked Otoacoustic Emission in a Sub-Urban Population in Nigeria
Objective: To determine the proportion of neonates with referral result on testing with transient evoked otoacoustic emission (TEOAE) and the associated risk factors. Method: Prospective evaluation of all neonates born in the Hospital within 6 months using the TEOAE. A hand-held Etymotic Research Otoacoustic Emission Scanner (Ero-scan Combo) was used with the child sleeping in the cot or the mo...
متن کاملNeonatal otoacoustic emission screening and the identification of deafness.
Using transient evoked otoacoustic emissions (TEOAEs), a two stage screen with the testing of failures by auditory brainstem response (ABR), has been implemented in Whipps Cross Hospital in East London. From January 1992 to 1995, 11,606 infants received an initial TEOAE test. Once initial difficulties were resolved, coverage of district residents remained stable at 91.5%. Long term follow up of...
متن کاملthe sensitivity and specificity of automated auditory brainstem response and otoacoustic emission in neonatal hearing screening: a systematic review
background and aim: otoacoustic emissions (oae) and automated auditory brainstem response (aabr) are the most commonly-used methods for universal neonatal hearing screening (unhs). various sensitivity and specificity rates have been reported for the oae and aabr tests as tools for screening newborn hearing. the main objective of this review was to determine the pooled sensitivity and pooled spe...
