Hearing loss is likely to be the most common congenital abnormality in newborns, with a reported prevalence of 3 per 1000 live births. It is vitally important to diagnose infant hearing loss or deafness at its early stages. The automated auditory brainstem response (AABR) screener is a dedicated hearing screening device which provides information not only about the outer and middle ear and cochlea but also about the auditory pathway up to the brainstem. The data presented were collected in the well-baby nursery. Overall, data from 5857 neonates screened from December 2012 to July 2015 were analyzed in this study. During 1-3 days after birth, they were analyzed with automated auditory brainstem response (AABR). Neonates referred the screening were scheduled for repeated diagnostic evaluation within a month. And newborns referred again were sent to a specialist for further audiology analysis. Out of the 5857 babies screened, 5050 passed bilaterally and 807 referred. The number of infants referred for 2nd stage, post-discharge re-screening was 319. Of this group, 287 passed bilaterally and 32 failed the re-screening in one or both ears. Diagnostic testing was performed on all of the 32 infants who were referred. The resulting referral rate was 13.7% for first stage and 1,4% for second stage. The follow-up rate was 37%. The confirm rate was 0,13%. Profound bilateral sensor neural hearing loss was identified in 3 infants. Profound bilateral mixed hearing loss was identified in 1 infant. Automated auditory brainstem response (AABR) was efficient in the early identification of newborn and infant hearing loss with high sensitivity and specificity rates. Due to the results of the study, 3 out of 5857 infants were diagnosed with a profound hearing loss and it’s approximately close to the results of other studies and statistics.

BACKGROUND. Hearing loss is likely to be the most common congenital abnormality in newborns, with a reported prevalence of 1 to 2 per 1000 live births. It is vitally important to diagnose infant hearing loss or deafness at its early stages. Early detection and intervention is critical to prevent the adverse consequences of a delayed diagnosis on speech, language and cognitive development. Universal screening of hearing loss has been introduced in practice with distortion product of otoacoustic emission (DPOAE). The automated auditory brainstem response (AABR) screener is a dedicated hearing screening device which provides information not only about the outer and middle ear and cochlea but also about the auditory pathway up to the brainstem. METHODS. The study was descriptive and based on a retrospective analysis of the two year period databases (2014-2016) from the newborn hearing screening program. We have started the hearing screening from December 2012. Between 2014 to 2017 we have been screened total of 11218 newborns. We tested automated audiotory brainstem response of the newborns in their 1- 3 days of birth, using Maico MB11 Beraphone machine (German) according to the Joint Committee on Hearing Screening guidence. We assessed the test result of “pass” as “normal hearing, “refer” as to rescreen and tested again after 1 month. Infants referred again were gone to a specialist for further audio logic analysis (behavioral tests, auditory brainstem response, otoacoustic emissions and auditory steady state response). RESULTS. Our study was the first in Mongolia. Total of 10290 newborns passed bilaterally out of 11218 and 1323 referred in the first screening. For the rescreen test, 1088 out of 1134 infants resulted with “pass” and 46 infants with “refer”. For those infants, we did ABR test in their 3 and 6 months, and result of 9 children (18 ears) have bilateral profound hearing loss, 2 children (2 ears) have bilateral mixed profound hearing loss and 13 (26 ears) have bilateral profound conductive hearing loss. Coverage rate was 34,7%. First refer rate was 11,7%. Follow rate was 39,7%. We conducted the cochlear implantation surgery for 2 children out of 11. Currently, we are preparing other infants with bilateral profound hearing loss of 0-3 years old for the follow up CI surgery. CONCLUSION. In Mongolia, the data of infant hearing difficulties and prevalence of deafness is lacking. Although newborn hearing screening program has been approved in 2014 and brought opportunities to conduct universal neonatal hearing screening program. But at the moment, its only available at NCMCH which located in Ulaanbaatar city. 11 cases have a bilateral profound hearing loss out of 11218 newborns. Our study result shows similiar pattern (1.1 - 1.3 ear deafness in every 1000 birth. Lenarz et all.2008). Automated audiotory brainstem response was efficient in early identification of newborn hearing loss with high sensitivity and specification rates. Small population in the remote locations, high birth percentage, short period in the hospital after birth, lack of technology and human resources, and other factors result in higher level of referral rate newborn hearing screening and lower level of follow up and confirmation rate referals in Mongolia.

Risk of nephrotith disease increases relating with using high hardened water, not suitable diet, being sensitive for some kind of food products. Then for Mongolia, particularly Bulgan province which is located in basin of the Selenge river is consisted in regions which have high hardened water. Sickness rate of renal diseases especially nephtolith disease is high in population of Selenge soum of Bulgan province. It was main reason of choose this subject and investigate non organic substances in urine of population and determine risks of nephtolith disease for them. To determine оne of the factors affecting the formation of the disease is to study the composition of drinking water and investigate non organic substances in urine. We used cross-sectional methodology for our study. Our study was conducted from June, 2013 to November, 2014. Household water used portable water dissemination and homes with private wells and water samples from the river.Drinking water analyzed of the chemistry parameters (13 substances) in the chemistry and toxicology laboratories in Orkhon aimag. There was 300 urine analyze was done and 62 of them was confirmed nephtolith disease with it. We investigated non-organic substances in their urine. Interviews people in the study, the average age was 43.26±14.7. 64.2% of participants was answered that they use ground water (private groundwater wells), 25.4% use external water (the well water), 8.1% use river water, 2.3 use pure water when asked about their water supply. Composition of samples from drinking water standard was near to the standard assessments by comparing the maximum amount of. We were considered the most important water pH, solids, iron, chlorine analysis compares removable wells and private wells. Hardness for 53.3% of the well of 2.5-3.5 mg/l with hard water, private wells, 60.0% of 4.6-5.5 mg/l solids by of water. Wells chlorides portable 66.7% 14.4-25.3 mg/l, and private wells 13.3% of 4.3-14.3 mg /l. 20.7 percent of survey identified as the kidney and urinary tract diseases. Urat salt (32.1%), compound of urat and sodium (32.1%), oxalate (14.5%), sodium (13.4%), compound of oxalate and sodium (6.4%), phosphate (1.5%) was determined in urine analyze. It was close to the water content of the standard performance. The well water solids of 2.5-3.5 mg/l and private groundwater wells solids of 4.6-5.5 mg/l. And the well chlorides 14.4-25.3 mg/l and private groundwater wells chlorides 4.3-14.3 mg/l.Urat and compound of urat and sodium are dominated in composition of stone during nephrolith disease (p=0.043).

The Western Pacific Region have the highest neonatal mortality rate of any country in the world. It has 37 countries and areas with approximately 1.8 billion people which comprises one-fourth of the total world population. The First Embrace It is care for all mothers and newborn infants. The components of the First Embrace are immediate and thorough dying, appropriately timed clamping and cutting of the cord, skin to skin contact and initiating exclusive breastfeeding for all newborns. Aim: First embrace and Early Essential Neonatal Care the importance of infant seeks to to learn some of the problems faced by identifying the skills of medical personnel. We were conducted in this study by a cross sectional questionnaire in order to assess the knowledge, attitude and practices of healthcare providers about essential newborn care and administrated a structured questionnaire to evaluate instruments and materials of the maternity wards.Skin to skin contact and a mother first embrace is the beginning of a healthy life is to reduce the newborn mortality. And the first embrace is improves the children’s immunity. We determined urgent problems for EENC including a lack of maternal health education, inadequate salaries for health care providers, a lack of essential medicines and commodities for birth preparation and numbers of health care providers delivering neonatal intensive care are increased due to the stillbirth rate has increased dramatically year by year.The first embrace is important to reduce neonatal mortality rate and 92.0% of all participants have the enough experiences for the first embrace care and 80.3% of all participants for the EENC.

Introduction: Biliary Atresia is a fibroobliterativedisorder of the intra andextrahepatic bile ducts in infancy, which isgoing progressively cholestatic liver disease.The failed Kasaiportoenterostomy requiresliver transplantation. The goal of this studyis to show the outcome of Kasai operation,recent improvement and correlation the datato overseas.Methods and Materials: This study wasconducted in the department of generalsurgery of National Center for Maternal andChild Health of Mongolia between 2010 and2016 on a total of 66 infancies with biliaryatresia.Results: Patient diagnosed with biliaryatresia, which performed Kasai operationwithin first 2 months the outcome is verygood early and late post-operation period.There were 3 patients with 10 year survival, 4patients with 5-10 year and 28 patients with5 year survival after Kasai operation. The mostcomport age for liver transplantation is 1 yearlater after Kasai operation in Mongolia. Livertransplantation programme is necessary forMongolian pediatric surgery, and we thoughtour team was assembled.Conclusion: The children with biliary atresiaperform the Kasai operation within 2 monthsthe outcome is very good. Children with biliaryatresia often experience long wait times fortransplant unless exception points are grantedto reflect severity of disease.In Mongolia livertransplantation done in 2 child.
