What to do if a six-month child has not passed hearing test?

2020-06-17 Baby hearing test is generally taken when baby is seven days after delivery, 42 days after delivery, and three to six months. If a six-month baby fails hearing test, I don't know how many times he fails before. If it has never been tested before, then the result of the first screening is likely to be inaccurate, or temporary. It is recommended to continue the test in two days.

The causes of inaccurate screening include cold, stuffy nose, fever, sore throat, cough, children's milk, choking milk and so on. In order to ensure the accuracy of screening, attention should be paid during hearing screening to avoid hearing screening under the above circumstances (if the screening fails due to the above reasons, timely medical intervention and good prognosis). It is recommended that the cold and After the improvement of throat pain, fever and other conditions, continue to screen.

If the results of multiple tests are the same, first of all, we need to see if there is any foreign body in baby’s ear canal or if there is fluid in the middle ear, then we need to do a cochlear vestibule test to see if it is a problem of cochlear vestibule development. Finally, we need to do a brainstem auditory evoked potential test to confirm. If any problem is found, corresponding measures shall be taken immediately, such as manual intervention e.g. wearing hearing aids.

Most of hearing test are a false alarm, once twice did not pass, and finally passed. In terms of baby's hearing, I need to remind you that when your baby is full of sleep and food after delivery, you should prepare more colorful things. It's the best to be active, to exercise your baby's eyesight, and some sound things, such as wind bells or some toys, to exercise the baby's hearing. Parents can also take a small bell in the baby The left side of the baby's ears and the right side of the baby's ears can also observe the baby's hearing.
