ABSTRACT
Objective
To know the prevalence of new born hearing impairment in Colima
state and associated risk factors.
Patients and method
A cross-over study with a sample of 1,223 participants from Colima
state, Mexico. Both ears were explored in all newborns, timpanometry,
otoacoustic emissions test and brain stem evoked auditive potentials
were done too, the latter in newborns with two positive otoacoustic
emissions tests.
Results
In 1,223 randomized newborns (648 females, 575 males) timpanometry
and otoacoustic emissions had sensitivity of 100% and specificity of
94% in second test; three newborns with positive result of otoacoustic
emissions test were detected, two with risk factor (ototoxics during
pregnancy, p = 0.007) and one patient without risk factor. Hearing
impairment diagnostic was corroborated by brain stem evoked auditive
potentials. Prevalence was 0.24%.
Conclusion
Otoacoustic emissions test is a convenient study for newborn auditive
evaluation. In Colima state, Mexico, there is not difference in
prevalence of hearing impairment compared with previous reports.
