[Early detection of hearing disorders. A simple method of mass screening in newborn infants].
The necessity of early detection and rehabilitation of hearing impaired children is accepted worldwide, but there are still different opinions about the earliest possible time and the kind of examinations in the Federal Republic of Germany. We report our method of examination of neonates, our results and our conclusions. We think that our method is very simple, easy, quick and can be done by well trained personnel. It is reliable enough to filter out suspicious cases, allowing audiological investigation and treatment, if necessary.
