Abstract:
The goal of early identification of hearing loss is being reached gradually. The technological options for assessing hearing loss in neonates and infants are expanding to the point that we are now capable of identifying hearing loss, regardless of developmental level. The latest revision of the JCIH (1991) risk criteria, in conjunction with an increasing number of statewide programs, provides optimism for meeting the goal of finding and remediating hearing loss early in the first year of life.
