Abstract		Congenital hearing impairment is an important handicap affecting 0.1% of infants. The prognosis for the hearing-impaired child is improved when the diagnosis is as early as possible and the intervention is immediate. With screening tests children who need further diagnostic testing can be detected. We measured otoacoustic emissions in 110 infants at risk for an early brain damage. In 14 infants (12.7%) they were not registrated. With additional diagnostic procedures we confirmed in eight (7.3%) of them permanent sensorineural hearing loss.
Summary		Prirojena izguba sluha je huda oviranost, ki je prisotna pri 0,1 % dojenčkov. Z zgodnjo razpoznavo in ustrezno pomočjo lahko posledice okvare zmanjšamo. K temu pripomorejo testi prebire, s katerimi izločimo sumljive dojenčke, ki jih nato natančneje pregledamo. V naši raziskavi smo v ta namen uporabili meritev zvočnega sevanja ušesa pri skupini 110 dojenčkov s tveganjem za zgodnjo možgansko okvaro. Pri 14 preiskovancih zvočnega sevanja ušesa nismo zabeležili. Z dodatnimi preiskavami smo pri osmih od teh (7,3 %) potrdili nepopravljivo zaznavno okvaro sluha.
