Core Tip

Core Tip: Hearing loss in newborns is a common problem worldwide. Hearing is responsible for the acquisition of language, speech, cognition, and learning. Deaf individuals have a great negative impact on public health and the economic state. Early detection and prompt intervention lead to better outcomes. The universal hearing screening program, genetic testing, and cytomegalovirus detection are useful tools for the early detection of hearing loss in newborns. Rehabilitation of deaf infants with hearing aids or cochlear implants, gene therapy, and treatment of cytomegalovirus infection are satisfactory methods of treatment. However, researchers are focused on resolving the ambiguities regarding the diagnosis and treatment of hearing loss.
