Etiology of newborn hearing impairment in Guangdong province: 10-year experience with screening, diagnosis, and follow-up.

The need for long-term follow-up should be taken into account when designing an intervention strategy. Furthermore, the use of the deafness gene chip should further elucidate the etiology of neonatal hearing impairment. PMID: 31912317 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
