Neonatal hearing screening in a neonatal intensive care unit using distortion-product otoacoustic emissions.
OBJECTIVE To determine pass and refer rates, and identify risk factors relating to refer responses, in neonates screened using distortion-product otoacoustic emissions (DPOAEs). MATERIAL AND METHODS A total of 435 neonates admitted to the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) of the Philippine General Hospital between May and October 2000 were screened using DPOAEs within 48 h of admission. R...

OBJECTIVE Investigate the prevalence of hearing impairment in newborns hospitalized at the Intensive and Intermediate Care Unit at the Women's Comprehensive Health Center Neonatology Service (UNICAMP) and associated risk factors. METHODS 979 newborn babies were assessed between January 2000 and January 2003, through automated auditory brainstem response (AABR) (ALGO 2e color screener). The re...
متن کاملDistortion product otoacoustic emissions in normally hearing subjects.
The finding of active function by the outer hair cells for sound processing prior to neural transduction in the inner hair cells represents the basic mechanism for the generation of Otoacoustic Emissions in the cochlea. Among them the so-called Distortion Product Otoacoustic Emissions represent a tool for an in depth knowledge of the Organ of Corti micromechanics, more advantageous than others,...
متن کاملPrevalence of Hearing Loss in Newborns Admitted to Neonatal Intensive Care Unit
Introduction: Hearing is essential for humans to communicate with one another. Early diagnosis of hearing loss and intervention in neonates and infants can reduce developmental problems. The aim of the present study was to assess the prevalence of hearing impairment in newborns admitted to a neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) and analyze the associated risk factors. Materials and Methods:...
متن کاملHigh-frequency hearing influences lower-frequency distortion-product otoacoustic emissions.
OBJECTIVES The primary goal of this study was to test the ability of 2f1-f2 distortion-product otoacoustic emissions (DPOAEs) to detect reduced cochlear function in the presence of normal behavioral sensitivity. DESIGN A prospective study was performed in normal-hearing young adults using simple and complex regression analyses to clarify the relationship between ultra-high frequency (UHF) hea...
