Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the characteristic and the hearing change of hearing thresholds of the infants failing in the hearing screening.Method:802 infants(1179 ears) with hearing screening record were reviewed in the study. They had hearing screened by otoacoustic emissions (OAE).However, they failed in the first or & and second hearing screening. Auditory brainstem response (ABR) , distortion product otoacoustic emissions(DPOAE) and acoustic immittance measurement were examined. Subjects with abnormal hearing-evaluation were retested during the following 1-3 months (before 6-month-old). To analysis the characteristic and the hearing change of hearing thresholds of the tests.Result:Among 802 cases(1179 ears),the ratio of single-ear(53.2%) is higher than both-ears(39.5%), P<0.05. And there are no significance between the two groups in the ration of severe abnormal hearing-evaluation ;25.8% infants once suffered from hypercholesterolenia failed in the hearing screening,which was higer than the other known risk factors.P<0.05; Threatened abortion group has found no cases of severe hearing abnormalities; The ratio of severe abnormal hearing-evaluation in family history hearing loss group (40.9%) was higher than other high-risk factors, followed by two or more risk fators group(10.8%);56.9% of the infance who did not pass the hearing screening were found none risk factors, 42.3% of the infances who had high risk factors was normal hearing level;96 cases(138 ears) undergone twice assesement, in morderat disorder group, more cases(74.3%) changed better , and less disorder group(40.9%), severe disorder group (33.3%).Seven ears became worse; Among abnormal hearing induced by different high-risk factors, the proportion of hearing improvement in children with moderate abnormal hearing was higher than that in children with slight abnormal hearing. Ten cases(12 ears) diagnosised auditory neuropathy.Conclusion:The important factors make the follow-up decision incluing perinatal history,hearing level and age.Maybe some high-factors we did not realized. Gene screening should be paied more attention in the future work.
