Question
A 48-day-old baby underwent a hearing test, with the results showing no waves in the left ear at a stimulus level of 132 dB, and waves appearing in the right ear at 111 dB and 99 dB. Does this mean the baby has lost hearing? Is there a possibility of treatment?
Answer
Infants with congenital hearing impairment should receive early intervention treatment to minimize the impact on language development and prevent becoming mute. Currently, there is no effective treatment method.
