Hearing Assessment of At-risk InfantsCurrent Status of Audiometry in Young InfantsChild Development and Mental Retardation Center and the Department of Speech and the Hearing Sciences, University of Washington, Seattle, Washington
Child Development and Mental Retardation Center and the Department of Speech and the Hearing Sciences, University of Washington, Seattle, Washington This study reports hearing status on a consecutive series of infants who had required neonatal intensive care. A relatively high percentage of infants demonstrated hearing impairment. Results are discussed in terms of their implications for the pediatrician who often serves a "case manager" role for families. An underlying assumption is that pediatricians are better equipped to advise parents and make referral decisions if they have an awareness of the current audiologic assessment strategies for infants and young children. The strengths and limitations of the currently employed methodologies are defined and discussed.
