“…In case the birth takes place outside the hospital, it is the responsibility of the midwife or doctor accompanying the birth to arrange for hearing screening. When this does not happen, the child’s pediatrician is obliged to check until the fifth pediatric examination (U5), which usually takes place at about the sixth month of life [ 29 ]. But these newborns do not enter the databank of the regional TC, and thus we can only speculate about the screenings performed.…”

Regular reporting of quality control is important in newborn hearing screening, ensuring early diagnosis and intervention. This study reports on a population-based newborn hearing screening program in North-Rhine, Germany and a hospital-based screening at a University Hospital for 2007–2016. The two-staged ‘screening’ and ‘follow-up’ program involving TEOAE and AABR recruited newborns through participating birth facilities. Results were sent to the regional tracking center, and the data were analyzed based on recommended benchmarks. The percentage of newborns from the participating birth facilities in the region increased from 1.4% in 2007 to 57.5% in 2016. The 10-year coverage rate for these newborns was 98.7%, the referral rate after a failed two-step screening was 3.4%, and the lost-to-follow-up rate was 1%. At the hospital, >95% of the screened newborns completed screening within 30 days, the 10-year referral rate was 5%, and 64% were referred within 3 months of age. The median time for screening completion was 6 days after birth, for referral it was 74 days after birth, and for diagnosis it was 55 days after birth. Regional–centralized tracking centers with uniform structure are necessary for proper quality control. Obligatory participation of birthing facilities and quality reports may improve performance, but the recommended quality criteria need considerable financial and infrastructural expenditure.

“…Die dritte Studie dieser Rubrik zum Einfluss des präoperativen Beratungsgesprächs vor totaler Laryngektomie zeigt, dass sich die Zeit, die sich der Arzt für eine umfassende Beratung vor einer Laryngektomie nimmt, auszahlt, da die stationäre Verweildauer verkürzt und die Versorgungsqualität verbessert wird [3]. [7] anschaulich und prägnant, sehr lesenswert auch für diejenigen, die sich bisher mit diesem Thema nicht oder nur wenig beschäftigt haben. Musikalische Fähigkeiten von Kindern mit auditiver Verarbeitungs-und Wahrnehmungsstörung werden in diesem Heft ebenfalls beleuchtet [8].…”
