| description | Purpose: analyse the results of the newborn hearing screening program in the county of Batatais. Methods: the sample of this research consisted of 4017 newborns assessed, in 4422 newborns. The procedure used was the examination of transient evoked otoacoustic emissions. The data were taken from the database of the institution that performs the hearing screening. Results: the findings showed failure in 365 newborns in the test, but, only 22 flaws in the retesting of which 4 were diagnosed with sensorineural hearing loss. The use of ototoxic antibiotics was the only risk factor observed. Conclusion: the hearing screening program in the city of Batatais seemed to be effective even if done on an outpatient basis. We believe that this is due to linkage of newborn screening and exclusive fulfillment in a single institution which is a benchmark in health care in the city. There was failure to TAN in only 0.5% of the assessed newborns. |
