PURPOSE Most newborns are screened for hearing loss, and many hospitals use a 2-stage protocol in which all infants are screened first with otoacoustic emissions (OAEs). In this protocol, no additional testing is done for those passing the OAE screening, but infants failing the OAE are also screened with automated auditory brainstem response (A-ABR). This study evaluated how many infants who fa...
Open access echocardiography (OAE) is defined as echocardiography that is requested by, reported to, and acted upon by general practitioners (GPs). Echocardiography provides information about cardiac anatomy (e.g. volumes, geometry, mass) and function (e.g. left ventricular function and wall motion, valvular function, right ventricular function, pulmonary artery pressure, pericardium). In the p...
The paper describes some design aspect of an otoacoustic emissions (OAE) instrument for hearing assessment by using a personal computer and its affiliated sound card. The instrument functionality are achieved by means of virtual instrumentation programmed with LabVIEW utilities. Such OAE instrument is of high quality but relatively inexpensive , and has the potential for laboratory research and...
OBJECTIVES: Otoacoustic emissions (OAE) technology, used widely in newborn hearing screening programs and validated by professional organizations as a reliable and objective tool, is beginning to be recognized as superior to subjective methods when screening young children in a variety of settings. This study examines the efficacy of integrating OAE hearing screening into services routinely pro...
Objective. Until recently, no objective tool has been available to help health and early childhood education providers screen young children for hearing loss. The aim of this study was to screen underserved children <= 3 years of age for hearing loss using Otoacoustic Emissions (OAE) technology and to systematically document multi-step screening and diagnostic outcomes. Methods. A total of 4519...
This article describes some of the factors relevant to the establishment of a universal newborn hearing screening (UNHS) program. First, the difficulty in providing precise estimates of test sensitivity and specificity are reviewed. This section is followed by hypothetical estimates of overall programmatic costs, first for a fixed number of babies to be screened and then as a function of the nu...
The diagnostic yield of open-access endoscopy of the upper gastrointestinal tract in the Netherlands
Background and study aims Since the introduction of open-access esophago-gastroduodenoscopy (OAE) there is an increase in the total number of performed OAEs whilst the frequency of clinical relevant findings has decreased. The aim of this study was to assess the appropriate use and the diagnostic yield of OAE in the Netherlands and to determine which patient variables are able to predict a mal...
BACKGROUND Severe birth asphyxia (apgar < 7 at the 5th minute of birth) is recognized as a hearing loss risk factor by the joint committee on infant hearing (JCIH). About half of the newborns with hearing loss do not indicate any sign and risk factor at birth. Accordingly, the joint committee recommended performance of hearing screening test in 2000, especially for babies born with risk factors...
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...
