Abstract

Earlier investigations have reported congenital hearing loss in pre-term infants. Present study investigated
hearing tests among pre-term infants to know the percentage of pre-term infants with hearing impairment.
Two stage hearing assessment of pre-term infants showed congenital profound hearing loss in 16% of the
infants. Present study showed the importance of TEOAE and ABR as efficient tool for hearing screening
of high risk infants.
