Neonatal & Pediatric Audiology Clinic
Neonatal & Pediatric Audiology Clinic
The Neonatal & Pediatric Audiology Clinic at City Care Hospital is dedicated to providing comprehensive hearing assessments and treatments for newborns, infants, and children. Early detection and intervention are crucial for ensuring proper auditory development and communication skills, which is why our clinic offers specialized care for hearing-related concerns at all stages of childhood.
Services We Offer
- Newborn Hearing Screening:
- We conduct hearing screenings for newborns to identify any potential hearing loss early on. This non-invasive test is performed shortly after birth to ensure prompt diagnosis and intervention if needed.
- Diagnostic Hearing Evaluations:
- For infants and children who may have hearing concerns, we provide detailed diagnostic evaluations using advanced audiometric testing. These tests help us accurately determine the type and degree of hearing loss.
- Auditory Brainstem Response (ABR) Testing:
- ABR testing is used to assess the hearing nerve pathways from the ear to the brain. This test is particularly useful for diagnosing hearing issues in very young or uncooperative children.
- Hearing Aid Fitting and Management:
- We offer hearing aid fitting and management services for children with diagnosed hearing loss. Our team ensures that each child receives the most appropriate and effective hearing aid, with ongoing support and adjustments as they grow.
- Cochlear Implants:
- For children with severe hearing loss who do not benefit from hearing aids, we provide cochlear implant services. Our clinic offers evaluation, surgical coordination, and post-implantation therapy to help children maximize their hearing potential.
- Speech and Language Therapy:
- In collaboration with speech therapists, we offer speech and language therapy to support children with hearing loss in developing their communication skills. This integrated approach helps improve speech clarity and language comprehension.
- Parental Guidance and Counseling:
- We provide education and counseling to parents, helping them understand their child’s hearing condition and how to support their auditory development. Our team is committed to empowering families with the knowledge and resources they need.
- Congenital Hearing Loss:
Congenital hearing loss is present at birth and can be caused by genetic factors or complications during pregnancy or delivery, such as infections, premature birth, or lack of oxygen. Early detection is crucial for timely intervention, which can significantly improve a child’s ability to develop normal speech and language skills. - Acquired Hearing Loss:
Acquired hearing loss occurs after birth and can result from various factors, including ear infections (otitis media), head injuries, exposure to loud noises, or certain medications. This type of hearing loss may be temporary or permanent, depending on the cause and severity, and can affect one or both ears.
