ABSTRACT
Introduction: Neonatal hearing screening is one of the most widely used techniques for early and timely diagnosis of hearing losses that lead to disability.Objective: To design the procedure for universal hearing screening in the Cuban neonatal population.
Methods: Technological development study carried out from January to December 2017. Experts were selected through self-evaluation and the Kappa competence coefficient. The experts participated in the design through the nominal groups technique, in view of the analysis of the problems limiting universal hearing screening and the scientific, organizational and functional potentialities of the healthcare network for hearing disorders. Subsequently, they assessed the procedure individually and the nominal groups technique was applied to achieve consensus. The bibliographic review allowed to assess the accomplishments and difficulties of other procedures established in other settings.
Results: The procedure for universal hearing screening was obtained as a result, structured in three components: screening, diagnosis and rehabilitation.
Conclusions: The procedure designed for universal early neonatal screening of hearing loss in the Cuban neonatal population standardizes the processes of providing healthcare, through comprehensive management to prevent and control, timely, events that affect hearing-related health.
