What should I do if my newborn baby fails the left ear hearing screening?

The arrival of a new life is both sweet and a burden for a family. Because parents have to worry about this new life. Since the body functions of newborns are not fully developed, it is necessary to take your child for regular checkups, and hearing screening is one of them. So, what should we do if the newborn baby fails the left ear hearing screening? Today, let me tell you the answer.

During the baby's growth and development process, the period before the age of three is the fastest period of brain development for the baby, and it is also the most critical period for learning language. If there is hearing impairment at this stage, it will seriously affect the baby's hearing and speech development, and also affect the development of his or her psychology, intelligence, behavioral abilities and other aspects.

Newborn hearing screening is the only measure to detect hearing abnormalities in newborns and infants at an early stage. Since babies cannot speak after birth and cannot tell their parents that they cannot hear, many parents are unaware that their children have hearing impairments. If hearing screening is not done in time, the baby's hearing impairment may be missed, which can have serious consequences. When the child is 2 or 3 years old and we find that the child has no response to our calls and his speech level is much worse than that of children of the same age, we rush to the hospital for treatment. However, by this time, the best time for children to learn has often been missed. Therefore, newborn hearing screening is very necessary for early detection of hearing impairment in newborns or children and early intervention and treatment.

If a newborn baby fails the hearing screening in his left ear, go for another screening after a while. One screening does not mean there is a problem. There may be a lot of secretions in the newborn's vagina. Failure of the hearing screening does not mean that the child has a problem with his ear. But it should still get your attention.

The above is what I want to introduce to you today about what to do if a newborn baby fails the left ear hearing screening. I hope my sharing will be helpful to you. For newborns, since their organs are not yet fully developed, one failure does not mean complete failure, so mothers do not need to worry too much.
