Patient's question:
What could be the reason why the baby did not pass the screening?Doctor's answer:
Hello, the infant has undergone a hearing screening, which is only a preliminary test and not very accurate. If there is earwax in the ear, it may also fail the test. You can go to the otolaryngology department for an auditory brainstem response test, which can objectively and accurately assess the infant's hearing. A failed screening does not necessarily mean there is a problem; don't worry! Generally, doctors recommend that patients with prenatal examination risk signs follow a balanced diet, avoid spicy and irritating foods, and stay away from cold foods. Additionally, patients should create an environment conducive to emotional stability and stress relief. Wishing the patient a healthy delivery.
