  4. EHDI programmesin the European area_________________________________________________________________ WHY • All available results (scientific and clinical) point out that the earlier the intervention the better the outcomes. • EHDI systems are becoming the standard of care worldwide

  5. Early Hearing Detection and Intervention Programs • European area • USA • Worldwide

  6. Early Hearing Detection and Intervention Programs • European area • USA • Worldwide

  7. EHDI programmesin the European area_________________________________________________________________ • Universal hearing screening is mandated - or supported - by central health authorities, in a number countries, or regions: Austria, Belgium (Flanders), Croatia, England, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Poland, laenders in Germany, a number of Regions in Italy and Spain.

  13. 2004 State EHDI Survey NCHAM National Ctr for Hearing Assessment and Management During the first quarter of 2004, state Early Hearing Detection and Intervention (EHDI) coordinators were asked to complete a survey about their program (Source: www.Infanthearing.org by courtesy of Dr. Karl White)

  14. SCREENING (1) • Percentage of babies born (3rd quarter 2003) in your state screened before leaving the hospital? • 89.72% of all babies being screened • 91.62% excluding states ≤ 80% (CA, IA & OH) • Birthing facilities • Total: 3602 • Minimum: 7 (RI) • Maximum: 350 (CA) (courtesy of Dr. Karl White)

  15. SCREENING (2) • Birthing facilities doing UNHS (i.e., > 90% of all births) at the end of December 2003 • Total: 3120 • Range: 6 – 263 • Weighted percentages: • 86.62% of all birthing facilities doing UNHS • 90.88% excluding states ≤ 80% (CA, KS, NY, TN, & WA) (courtesy of Dr. Karl White)

  16. SCREENING (3) hearing screening –surveillance- occurs for: (courtesy of Dr. Karl White)

  17. REFERRALS • Percentage of the referrals • 5.57% - 47 States responding • 3.52% - Excluding outliers • ≤ 1% (10 states) and • > 10% (3 states) • No response or "unknown": 4 states (courtesy of Dr. Karl White)

  18. DIAGNOSIS • Hearing status confirmed by 3 months of age • 55.09% 36 states responding • 53.80% Excluding outliers ≤ 5% (3 states) and ≥ 90% (5 states) • No response or "unknown": 15 states (courtesy of Dr. Karl White)

  19. EARLY INTERVENTION % who began appropriate early intervention by 6 months of age: 48.68 % who began appropriate early intervention after 6 months of age: 19.66 % for which early intervention status is unknown 32.19 (No response: 15 states) N.B.: % of those identified with permanent hearing loss, but not all those who didn’t pass the screening have been diagnosed! (courtesy of Dr. Karl White)

  20. EVALUATION • State certifying, licensing, or approving hospital-based programs • Hospital conducting UNHS: • YES 11 NO 40 • Individuals doing screening: • YES 7 NO 44 (courtesy of Dr. Karl White)

  24. Early Hearing Detection and Intervention Programs are becoming the standard of care in an increasing number of countries • Screening models have been receiving much attention during the past decade BUT still there is a long way to go for protocols and minimum requirements

  32. EHDI programmesin the European area_________________________________________________________________ HOW THE OPTIMAL MODEL FOR UNIVERSAL NEWBORN HEARING SCREENING DOES NOT EXIST

  33. Critical issues - Protocols_________________________________________________________________ Properties of an ideal screening device: • Robust and reliable automatic detection algorithm • Built-in automatic calibration (to control stimulus levels) for both AAOEs and AABR • Maximum flexibility to cope with the variety of screening conditions: mother-side, nursery, NICU…. • Insensitivity to background noise • Maximum flexibility to cope with the changing screening criteria (standards are expected soon…)

  34. Screening Protocols_________________________________________________________________ A two-track protocol? • At-risk (NICU)(*): AABR-based • Well-babies: • 1 or 2-stage AOAEs+AABR • 1-stage AABR (*) the incidence of PHL can be as high as 4 to 6%: is this “screening”??

  35. COMBINING AOAE+AABR • Calibration of acoustic stimuli in the canal • Lower referrals and false-positives • Minimal parental anxiety • Fewer diagnostic tests • Fewer babies are lost • More efficient management • Auditory neuropathy can be identified early
