Hearing

When we hear a sound, our nervous system is detecting sound waves—pressure waves of mechanical energy traveling through a medium. The frequency of the wave is perceived as pitch, while the amplitude is perceived as loudness.

Area of Science:

  • Public Health
  • Audiology
  • Healthcare Management

Background:

  • Congenital hearing loss affects newborns, necessitating early detection.
  • Universal newborn hearing screening (UNHS) offers significant benefits for early intervention.
  • Despite global adoption, UNHS program implementation varies across regions.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To examine the history and current status of UNHS in Québec.
  • To identify general challenges in establishing universal newborn hearing screening programs.
  • To assess the effectiveness and limitations of UNHS.

Main Methods:

  • Review of statistics on congenital hearing loss occurrence and effects.
  • Analysis of financial reports, regulations, and publications related to UNHS.
  • Interviews with healthcare staff and program managers involved in UNHS.

Main Results:

  • UNHS programs are beneficial and cost-effective globally.
  • Québec shows progress but nearly half of newborns remain unscreened.
  • Low screening rates in Québec are attributed to implementation delays, IT issues, costs, and low public awareness.

Conclusions:

  • Understanding challenges is crucial for timely UNHS implementation.
  • Québec's experience offers valuable lessons for other healthcare systems establishing UNHS programs.
