- Newborn Hearing Screening is often state mandated for newborns prior to discharging from the hospitals.
Many parents question how the hearing screening is done and why there is a rush to do a hearing screening. In this video Dr. Lindsey Tubaugh and Dr. JJ Whicker discuss what is involved in a newborn hearing screening, why an infant may not pass a newborn hearing screening, and what to expect in terms of a screening if you have a newborn in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU).
Timely hearing screenings are essential not only for early detection and intervention- but also to determine if an infant with hearing loss has congenital CMV (cytomegalovirus) which can only be detected in the first 3 weeks of life.
