Abstract

Background : Most people have congenital hearing loss. This type of hearing loss happens during pregnancy. The causes are Prematurity, maternal hyperglycemia, anoxia before birth, genetics, and infectious disorders like rubella transmitted from mother to baby in utero. Early diagnosis of hearing loss in some neonates allows for timely treatment with cochlear implants or hearing aid treatment to support language development. Cochlear implants may enable better speech comprehension in both quiet and noisy situations with the aid of therapy.
