Hearing Loss

​

Introduction

​

A child with hearing loss should be detected and intervention started immediately after delivery. New born hearing screening is done using an otoacustic emission machine. Any child suspected of hearing loss (usually presenting with delayed speech development) should be referred to a zonal/national hospital immediately since early intervention has a better outcome.
