Abstract

Early detection of congenital hearing loss is vital. A neonatal hearing screening programme and a 9 month at risk hearing screening programme are analysed. Neither contributed significantly to the detection of deaf infants, though 9 month at risk screening can be worthwhile if well administered. Age of detection data for deaf preschoolers in New Zealand are presented.
