title: [The hearing function in the one-year old children with intrauterine growth retardation evaluated by two objective audiological methods].
abstract: The objective of the present study was to collect objective information about the hearing function in the prematurely born infants suffering intrauterine growth retardation (IUGR). The audiological examination of 77 patients at the age of 12 months was performed using two different methods making use of distortion product otoacoustic emission (DPOAE) and evoked auditory steady state responses (ASSRs). Hearing disorders were diagnosed in the children presenting with grade II and III IUGR born prior to the 34th week of pregnancy. The results of the study indicate that the children with grade II and III intrauterine growth retardation born earlier than the 34th week of pregnancy are at risk of developing hearing impairment and should be under dynamic audiological observation with the use of two objective methods, namely DPOAE and ASSR.
