Early on, the hearing could be detected. Early detection of hearing loss is expected to reduce the level of deafness. Deaf since birth cause impaired speech, language and cognitive. When late is known, then the greater the obstacles faced. Can produce human resources (HR) is not qualified. Then when the time is right to detect hearing?
Auditory detection can be performed from an early age. Newborns 1 or 2 days even been able to detect hearing. Because of the lack of parental knowledge to the development of the baby, causing frequent late diagnosis . So after age> 2 years before his parents realized how different from other children.
In fact, the impact of hearing loss can be prevented or limited if the hearing loss is known since the beginning of the program through early detection, an important auditory stimulus during the first 6 months of life to ensure the development of speech and language.
Hearing loss is detected early can be done adequate rehabilitation which allows optimal communication. So that it can interact with their environment and participate in public education facilities are normal, even though it may need a hearing aid.
Delays in early detection will lead to impaired development of the child. Especially in terms of the ability to speak. For instance, his age is well-spoken, even singing, with a hearing loss may only be short words.
Detection of hearing is not a medical procedure which is mandatory for every newborn, especially a long enough period of time to do so. However, instead of hearing the detection is done as soon as possible. If he is over two years old child can not speak, he could have been suffering from hearing loss. Normally boy spoke first one to two years. If it is past two years, it was difficult for speech therapy.
Indeed, the possibility of hearing loss in infants is quite small. However, several factors / risks could cause hearing loss becomes larger. Call it a baby who has a family history of hearing loss. These factors will increase the chances of a baby born with a hearing loss becomes larger. So, there is a genetic factor.
In addition, babies born with weight less than the average weight of babies in general also have a high risk of developing hearing loss . Babies born with the disorder hiperbilirubinia (yellow skin disorders) also has the potential to have a hearing loss.
Infants with hearing loss actually quite easy to characterized. One indicator is the sound. Infants with hearing loss often do not give good response to sound waves or sound.
