Abstract

Over a six-year period, 3,507 neonates in King George V Memorial Hospital, classified as being at risk for deafness, were screened for hearing. Although 144 failed to respond in the nurseries, 88 of them were cleared at a later test. The remainder, whether suspect, untraceable or still to return, would all be outside the neonatal period by now. No sensorineural impairment of hearing was detected in all neonates in the programme.
