NCT ID: NCT00511381 Completed - Hearing Loss Clinical Trials

Genetic Testing in Detection of Late-Onset Hearing Loss

SoundGene
Start date: October 2007
Phase: N/A
Study type: Observational

Two major limitations of existing audiometric newborn hearing screening programs are their inability to detect forms of deafness that are not expressed at birth and the low compliance with obtaining recommended audiologic confirmation and/or follow-up. Molecular genetic tests on blood spots from all newborns will identify those at risk for the most frequent causes of late-onset hearing loss and to add these infants to the group who should receive continued audiologic monitoring.
