Discuss procedures for measuring hearing in infants
What will be an ideal response?
As a result of an initiative by the federal government, about 95% of all newborns are screened for hearing. Ideally, a 1-3-6 rule is followed; babies are screened at the hospital by 1 month, with those who show signs of hearing loss followed up by 3 months and entering a family intervention program by 6 months. Some of the screening tests involve computer technology to measure otoacoustic emissions. Many schools have routine screening programs in the early elementary grades. These tests, especially those that are group rather than individually administered, are less accurate than tests done in an audiologist's office.
