The study of associated factors of hearing loss in high-risk newborns in HRH Princess Maha Chakri Sirindhorn Medical Center

Introduction: Neonatal hearing screening is important, especially in high-risk newborns because of the high incidence of hearing loss.
Objectives: To study the association of risk factors for hearing loss among high-risk newborns and to study the incidence of hearing loss.
Methods: A retrospective descriptive study in high-risk newborns who were born in HRH Princess Maha Chakri Sirindhorn Medical Center from May 1, 2020, to April 30, 2021. The data, including risk factors of hearing loss, the results of hearing screening, and the diagnosis of hearing loss, were collected from newborns and their mothers.
Results: There was a total of 30 high-risk newborns. Out of all high-risk newborns, 20 were male (66.67%). Hearing screening with otoacoustic emissions showed abnormal screening in 14 neonates (46.67%). The diagnosis of hearing loss by auditory brainstem responses was found in 3 newborns (10%). In this study, no risk factors associated with hearing lossin high-risk newborns were statistically significant.
Conclusions: The incidence of hearing loss in high-risk newborns was 10% and no risk factors were found to be statistically associated with hearing loss in high-risk newborns.
