Patient's question:
The baby is now one month old. Blood was taken at birth. Today, they called to say the epilepsy screening was positive. When the baby was 10 days old, they had a hearing test at the hospital and passed. Passing doesn't mean the baby can hear, right?Doctor's answer:
According to your current description, it may be an issue with the epilepsy gene test. If the hearing screening did not pass, further testing is required. Even if the screening passes, regular hearing re-examinations should be conducted. A re-examination is needed at 42 days post-birth.Regarding the explanation about "If the blood was collected at birth and passed, does it mean the baby can hear?"—this is all the information we can provide. We hope the patient can soon be free from the of the disease and enjoy healthy days every day~
