“…In this study, 5485 babies have been screened and 11 babies (2/1000) were diagnosed with severe bilateral hearing loss. ABR: Auditory brainstem response incidence of bilateral hearing loss and unilateral hearing loss has been reported to be between 0.13 and 0.60% and 0.17 and 0.38%, respectively (2,23,(25)(26)(27). In our study, the incidence of bilateral hearing loss and unilateral hearing loss was 0.06% and 0.02%, respectively.…”

Aim:In this study, we aimed to share the hearing screening results of newborns born in Konya Beyhekim Hospital and the risk factors in infants with hearing loss in the light of the current literature. Methods:In this study, the results of 13693 newborns who underwent hearing screening in our hospital between January 2011 and April 2016 were retrospectively evaluated. The hearing screening was performed by transient evoked otoacoustic emissions (TEOAEs). Auditory brainstem response (ABR) screening test was made in babies who failed the TEOAE test twice. The patients' sociodemographic and clinical characteristics and risk factors were evaluated.Results: 10987 (80.2%) of 13693 newborns who underwent hearing screening have passed on the first TEOAE screening. 863 (38.5%) newborns have passed on the second TEOAE screening. 1134 (93.3%) newborns have passed on the ABR screening. 62 of 81 (0.6%) patients who have failed the ABR screening had no hearing loss. Thirteen of the newborns born in our hospital had hearing loss. Conclusion:As in many centers in our country, newborn hearing screening has become routine in our hospital. It is important to follow up newborns for determining the actual incidence and early diagnosis and treatment of hearing loss.

Objective: The aim of the present study was to evaluate the patients included into national newborn hearing program in Rize Province,Turkey, between 2010 and 2015 with literature outcomes. Material and Method: Totally 25,373 newborns born within Rize province between January 2010 and December 2015 were enrolled into the study. Transient Evoked Otoacoustic Emission (TEOAE) and Auditory Brainstem Response (ARB) tests were used. The infants failed from TEOAE were subjected to ABR on the same day; infants who also failed from ABR were referred to a reference centre for clinical ABR. Results: Among 25,373 infants enrolled into the study, 1,562 (6.15%) infants failed from first and second tests and were referred to a reference centre for clinical ABR. Unilateral hearing loss was detected in 1 infant whereas bilateral hearing loss was detected in 15 infants. A risk factor was determined in 7 of 16 infants with hearing loss. Conclusion: Hearing loss affects the social, emotional and mental development of the newborns negatively. Newborn hearing screening allows early recognition of babies with hearing loss and may provide early treatment.

“…[12,13] But, if unilateral hearing is considered as normal, hearing impairment of the other ear may be overlooked. Therefore, in the present study, we considered bilateral pass as normal hearing.…”

“…In the international literature, incidence of congenital hearing loss changes between 0.13 and 0.60%. [13,20,21] In national literature, incidences of hearing loss among newborns differed widely (Kayiran et al, 0.22% of 8052 newborns; [22] Genc et al, 0.2 in 5485 newborns; [23] Tatli et al, 0.28 in 711 newborns [24] and Kucur et al, 0.15 in 11053 newborns.
