- W3217136764 abstract "Introduction The introduction of newborn hearing screening programs (NHSP) has drastically contributed to the early diagnosis of hearing loss (HL) in children, with the prospect of children developing speech as early as possible. This retrospective study aims to present and discuss the preliminary results of the NHSP at the University Hospital of Patras, Greece, highlighting the strengths and weaknesses of the program. The evaluation of the implementation of NHSP is important to confirm the effectiveness of the process and elaborate system failures. Materials The study describes the results of previous data collected from the NHSP in the Rio hospital of Patra and analyzed the conditions of the sample collected. The random sample involved newborns born between November 2018 - December 2020 at the University Hospital in Patra, Greece, which was assessed using transient evoked otoacoustic emissions (TEOAEs). Testing was performed twice per week on Thursday and Friday with a random sample, specifically examining the babies in the hospital these days. From the 2014 newborns assessed, 1491 were healthy neonates, while the other 523 required hospitalization in the neonatal unit. Results In total, there were 2014 live births; 1491 healthy neonates were screened with TEOAEs. Of them, 44 did not pass the first test. After retesting one month later, 31 passed the test, while the other 13 were referred to a hearing centre for further audiological testing with auditory brainstem response (ABR) tests. Two infants never showed up for the follow-up appointment. Of the remaining 11, six infants had normal hearing, three had otitis media with effusion or other conductive HL. The last two infants had HL. Specifically, one had bilateral sensorineural HL greater than 40db, and one had unilateral sensorineural HL greater than 40db. Risk factors were identified in 523 newborns admitted to the unit. The most common risk factors identified were the use of ototoxic drugs, low Apgar scores, and prematurity. Of all the newborns, 491 passed the test the first time, and the rest 32 infants came back 1-2 months after leaving the neonatal unit. All the babies who had failed in the first screening test appeared for the follow-up appointment for the second screening test. Of these, 24 babies passed the test, but eight did not. Of these, four were diagnosed with media otitis with effusion or other conductive HL. Sensorineural HL was identified in the last four babies using ABR tests. In detail, two had unilateral sensorineural HL greater than 40db, while two had bilateral sensorineural HL greater than 40db. Conclusion In conclusion, we found that for the NHS programs to be effective, they must be implemented long-term and have monetary support. Early diagnosis and cochlear implantation are the keys to excellent outcomes. Cooperation between different specialties and a patient-centred approach will help physicians holistically face neonatal HL. Building trust between the parents and doctor is essential for the program's success and reducing the lost-to-follow-up rate. To run a successful program, trained staff, equipment, and financial support are required. However, the gold standards for the success of the program are proper implementation of the program, close follow-up, strict adherence to the guidelines in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU), and the early detection and diagnosis of HL." @default.
