Childhood Hearing Center
If your 人妻中出视频 has hearing loss, we understand the strain that hearing loss can put on both you and your 人妻中出视频.
Our goal is to be a resource for families wanting to know more about their 人妻中出视频鈥檚 condition and provide the best鈥攁nd most current鈥攖reatment.
We have evaluated over 700 人妻中出视频ren for hearing loss. To diagnose and treat hearing loss in 人妻中出视频ren, we perform early CMV screenings followed by genetic or imaging screenings based on your 人妻中出视频鈥檚 symptoms. This approach has been supported by a recent international consensus group of pediatric hearing loss specialists.
Get Your Baby Tested For Hearing Loss
If you鈥檙e worried your baby may have hearing loss, or if your baby has been recently diagnosed with hearing loss, we recommend diagnostic hearing testing and treatment based on guidelines from the Joint Committee of Infant Hearing.
If you鈥檙e worried your baby may have hearing loss, getting early treatment for your baby will help improve her speech and language development when she鈥檚 older.
1-3-6 Milestones for Hearing Loss
To make sure your baby gets the treatment she needs, we recommend the 1-3-6 milestones:
- All babies should get a hearing screening that uses a physiologic measure by the time they鈥檙e 1 month old.
- If your baby doesn鈥檛 pass her first hearing screening, and if she also doesn鈥檛 pass her second hearing screening after that, then you should take your baby to an audiologist when your baby is 3 months old. Doctors can give your baby audiological (hearing) and medical evaluations to see if she has hearing loss.
- If a doctor tells you that your baby has permanent hearing loss, get early treatment as soon as possible after your baby is diagnosed. But be sure to get treatment for your baby at no later than 6 months old.
Unfortunately, many parents don鈥檛 discover their 人妻中出视频 has hearing loss until they鈥檙e older. Your 人妻中出视频 may not get diagnosed until:
- she has a hearing test at school,
- she has delayed speech, or
- if she becomes less responsive to sounds or language.
It鈥檚 very important that you get early detection and treatment during this critical period of your 人妻中出视频鈥檚 development.
