However, in most cases, hearing issues aren\u2019t discovered in children until they are at least 2 years old. The first two years of a child\u2019s life are critical in physical development and forming emotional, learning and communication skills. Because of this, babies with moderate to severe hearing loss often experience major developmental setbacks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Despite many years of developing and refining these hearing tests for babies just a few months old, studying infant hearing loss still presents many challenges. If you\u2019re a new parent preparing for a newborn hearing screening, there are several important factors and facts you need to know before your appointment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">There Are Two Common Hearing Tests Used for Newborns<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The first is called an Auditory Brainstem Response (ABR) test, which measures a baby\u2019s hearing nerve response using electrodes. The second is the Otoacoustic Emissions (OAE) test, which uses a microphone and earphone to calculate an infant\u2019s hearing abilities by measuring the reflection of a sound\u2019s echo as it passes through the ear canal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">False Positives for Hearing Loss Are Common in Newborn Screenings<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Your care providers will likely perform a baby\u2019s first hearing screening within a few hours or days of birth. Statistics show that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cdc.gov\/ncbddd\/hearingloss\/data.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">approximately 2%<\/a> of infant hearing tests performed in the U.S. indicate hearing loss. Rather than a diagnosis, these tests help parents identify a potential problem as early as possible, promoting the prevention of developmental disorders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Hearing Loss in Infants Is Usually the Result of a Temporary, Treatable Condition<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The tests used in newborn hearing screenings are accurate; however, they can\u2019t reveal what causes the inconsistent results. In most cases, a hearing loss\u2014positive result from the tests indicates an easily treatable problem like a fluid buildup, earwax blockage or ear infection. In other cases, doctors may never identify the cause. Infants with irregular test results will be directed to an audiologist or hearing specialist for a more in-depth examination.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">It\u2019s Important to Continue Following Up on Irregular Newborn Hearing Screening Results<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Since hearing screenings may indicate a potential hearing loss, many parents are left wondering about their child\u2019s hearing.
