“…anomalies, syndromes known to be associated with hearing loss, and severe birth asphyxia (Apgar score <7 at five minutes) are among the risk factors of hearing loss in neonates (13). It has been long known that hypoxia may have a role in the etiology of hearing loss in neonates.…”

Objective: The aim of the present study was to examine the relationship between the results of the transient otoacoustic emission (TEOAE) test used in neonatal hearing screening and the results of the umbilical cord blood (UCB) analysis in neonates.Methods: This retrospective study included 209 neonates born in the obstetric unit at the 37 th gestational week. Based on the results of the TEOAE test, the neonates included in the study were divided into two groups as the study group composed of those "REFER" (n=141) and the control group consisting those "PASS" (n=68) the test. The UCB sampling procedure was performed on all neonates. In the blood samples, the pH parameters were evaluated by using glass electrodes, and the pCO 2 and pO 2 parameters were evaluated directly by using sensitive electrodes.Results: When the additional maternal diseases were compared with the TEOAE results, the ratio of hypothyroidism was found to be statistically higher in the study group (p<0.05). In terms of the pO 2 , pCO 2 , HCO 3 , and pH values obtained as a result of analyzing the UCB samples, there was no statistically significant difference between the groups (p>0.05). Conclusion:The results of the present study showed that there was no statistically significant difference between the results of UCB analysis and the TEOAE test. However, we believe that conducting a larger study evaluating other parameters and employing UCB analysis would be useful, and UCB evaluation, which is an inexpensive, easy and effective method in determining hypoxia in neonates, might be a significant marker in cases at risk of hearing loss.

“…Other studies showed a greater number of refer rates in newborns with prolonged stay in the NICU, use of mechanical ventilation and use ototoxic medications, in neonates with a family history of hearing loss and in those with a low Apgar score [8,15,16]. The increase number of refer in newborns with craniofacial malformations can be justified by the fact that these alterations are related to malformation of the hearing system and nervous system [16,17].…”

Objective: to analyze the frequency of risk indicators for hearing loss and its influence on the increase number of refer cases. Methodology:The study was carried out in a public hospital with a sample of 796 infants who participated in the neonatal hearing screening program by transient evoked otoacoustic emission (TEOAE).Results: 132 (16%) newborn had some risk indicators for hearing loss. NICU stay, low Apgar score, mechanical ventilation, lower birth weight less than 1500g and use of ototoxic drugs were the most frequenty risk indicators. A total of 51 (6%) newborns refer in the TEOAE test in at least one ear, and among them, 16 (31%) had a risk indicator for hearing loss. There was a statistically significant relationship between the refer rates in TEOAE with the following risk indicators: craniofacial malformation, genetic syndrome and birth weight less than 1500g. Conclusion:The NICU stay, low Apgar score, mechanical ventilation, birth weight less than 1500g and use of ototoxic drugs were the risk indicators most frequenty in this sample and the main risk indicator associated with refer in the TEOAE teste were craniofacial malformations, genetic syndromes and birth weight less than 1500g. Keywords: Risk indicators; Newborn; Hearing loss IntroductionThe prevalence of bilateral congenital hearing loss is 1 to 3/1000 live births, and in neonates with risk indicators for hearing, especially those coming from the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU), this prevalence increases 20 to 50/1000 live births [1,2].Hearing is an important sense for the development of speech and language, therefore the earlier the hearing loss is detected, the greater is the chances of promoting the development of oral language close to that of normal hearing individuals [3,5].Neonatal hearing screening allows identification of those who present a probable deafness before hospital discharge and the knowledge of the population characteristics to be screened supports to guide the cases.When the risk indicators for hearing loss is present it is necessary that the neonate be monitored audiologically, sequentially, in the first years of life, because the hearing loss can occur late and consequently affect the maturation of the auditory system, which has an unfavorable effect on the language acquisition process [6,7]. Therefore, it should be emphasized that the assessment of risk indicators for hearing is done in the maternity which will allow the elaboration of auditory attention protocols, providing the creation of actions to prevent and promote hearing health [8,9].The objective of this study was to analyze the frequency of risk indicators for hearing loss and its influence on the increase number of refer cases. MethodologyIt was a cross-sectional retrospective clinical study, conducted from January 2014 to December 2014, in a tertiary referral center. The Ethical Committee of the hospital approved the study (protocol 3395/09). Information on the pre, peri and postnatal history of the patients was collected through medical records,...

“…Bilateral hearing loss was detected in 15 infants whereas unilateral hearing loss was detected in one baby including 7infants with risk factors (3 with a family history, 2 with a long term intensive care unit hospitalization longer than 5 days, 2 with a family history of parental consanguinity, 1 with tragus abnormality) and 9 infants without risk factors. Literature data suggests that sensironeural hearing loss may be higher in high risk groups (20). The risk factors include family history of hearing loss and parental consanguinity.…”

Objective: The aim of the present study was to evaluate the patients included into national newborn hearing program in Rize Province,Turkey, between 2010 and 2015 with literature outcomes. Material and Method: Totally 25,373 newborns born within Rize province between January 2010 and December 2015 were enrolled into the study. Transient Evoked Otoacoustic Emission (TEOAE) and Auditory Brainstem Response (ARB) tests were used. The infants failed from TEOAE were subjected to ABR on the same day; infants who also failed from ABR were referred to a reference centre for clinical ABR. Results: Among 25,373 infants enrolled into the study, 1,562 (6.15%) infants failed from first and second tests and were referred to a reference centre for clinical ABR. Unilateral hearing loss was detected in 1 infant whereas bilateral hearing loss was detected in 15 infants. A risk factor was determined in 7 of 16 infants with hearing loss. Conclusion: Hearing loss affects the social, emotional and mental development of the newborns negatively. Newborn hearing screening allows early recognition of babies with hearing loss and may provide early treatment.
