Evaluation of newborn hearing screening program

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE

To evaluate Newborn Hearing Screening Program of Hospital Regional de Sobradinho, from January 2016 to December 2017, according to Multiprofessional Committee on Auditory Health parameters and Joint Committee on Infant Hearing (JCIH) recommendations, as well as to describe the prevalence of risk factors for hearing loss within the study population and their impact on the respective program.

METHOD

This is a quantitative, cross-sectional and retrospective study that carefully analyzed registration books of screened newborns. It was established the prevalence of “pass” and “fail” in test and retest, retest percentage of attendance and referral for audiological diagnosis. Risk factors for hearing loss were described, as well as their influence on “pass” and “fail” rates. Inferential statistical analysis was performed using chi-square test and Anderson-Darling test, with 5% reliability index.

RESULTS

A total of 3,981 newborns were screened; 2,963 (74.4%) presented no risk factors whereas 1,018 (25.6%) did, prematurity being the most frequent (51.6%). In the test, 166 (4.2%) failed and 118 (71.1%) attended the retest. The referral rate for diagnosis was 0.3%.

CONCLUSION

Regarding the percentage of referral for diagnosis, the program reached indexes recommended by the Joint Committee on Infant Hearing and Multiprofessional Committee on Auditory Health. The most prevalent risk factor within the population was prematurity.

INTRODUCTION

Universal Newborn Hearing Screening (UNHS) is part of a set of actions recommended by the Ministry of Health for integral care to hearing health in childhood., being responsible for the early detection of hearing loss in newborns through Otoacoustic emission (OAE) testing and automated brainstem auditory evoked potential (BAEP), also known as brainstem evoked response audiometry (BERA) 11. Ministério da Saúde (BR). Diretrizes de atenção à triagem auditiva neonatal. Brasília, DF; 2012. .

According to the Joint Committee on Infant Hearing 22. American Academy of Pediatrics, Joint Committee on Infant Hearing. Year 2007 position statement: principles and guidelines for early hearing detection and intervention programs. Pediatrics. 2007;120(4):898- 921. https://doi.org/10.1542/peds.2007-2333
https://doi.org/10.1542/peds.2007-2333...
, OAE testing is indicated for the early identification of hearing disorders in newborns (NB). BAEP should be performed when, regardless of the OAE testing outcome, the newborn has any risk factor for hearing loss (RFHL): cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection, progressive hearing loss associate-syndromes, prematurity, neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) permanence, neurodegenerative disorders, trauma or postnatal infections with positive culture associated with sensorineural hearing loss, when small for gestational age (SGA), children who have received extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) or chemotherapy, and whenever there is caregiver’s concern or hearing-loss family history 22. American Academy of Pediatrics, Joint Committee on Infant Hearing. Year 2007 position statement: principles and guidelines for early hearing detection and intervention programs. Pediatrics. 2007;120(4):898- 921. https://doi.org/10.1542/peds.2007-2333

.

In 2010, the State sanctioned law No. 12,303 33. Brasil. Lei Nº 12.303, de 2 de agosto de 2010. Lei do Teste da Orelhinha. Dispõe sobre a obrigatoriedade de realização do exame denominado Emissões Otoacústicas Evocadas. Diario Oficial Uniao. 2 ago 2010; Seção 1:1. , stating the compulsory free-execution of the examination called Evoked Otoacoustic Emissions (EOEA) within all hospitals and maternities in children born in their facilities. As the law neither set deadlines for compliance nor defined the funding sources, in 2012 the Ministry of Health established the UNHS Attention Guidelines in Brazil 11. Ministério da Saúde (BR). Diretrizes de atenção à triagem auditiva neonatal. Brasília, DF; 2012. . Literature agrees that UNHS execution rates should be higher than 95% of live births 22. American Academy of Pediatrics, Joint Committee on Infant Hearing. Year 2007 position statement: principles and guidelines for early hearing detection and intervention programs. Pediatrics. 2007;120(4):898- 921. https://doi.org/10.1542/peds.2007-2333

. However, according to surveys, the reality of Brazil is far from this number, and, if hearing loss is not identified early, children may have great difficulties in speech and language development 55. Cruz LRL, Ferrite S. Cobertura estimada da triagem auditiva neonatal para usuários do Sistema Único de Saúde, Brasil, 2008-2011. Rev Bras Saude Mater Infant. 2014;14(4):401-11. https://doi.org/10.1590/S1519-38292014000400010
https://doi.org/10.1590/S1519-3829201400...
.

Based on the above and on the reality of the Unified Health System, the need for discussions about the effectiveness of UNHS is reinforced. This study aims to evaluate the Newborn Hearing Screening Program of Hospital Regional de Sobradinho (HRS), from January 2016 to December 2017, according to Multiprofessional Committee on Auditory Health parameters and Joint Committee on Infant Hearing (JCIH) recommendations, as well as describe the prevalence of risk factors for hearing loss within the study population and their impact on the respective program. As research hypothesis, we assumed that the service could reach the values recommended by COMUSA and JCIH, although the population covered has a high prevalence of RFHL, and that the percentage of newborns with it affects the Program outcomes. Thus, this study is important as it contributes to other national newborn hearing screening programs on epidemiology, flow and main difficulties encountered in this population screening.

METHODS

This is a quantitative, cross-sectional and retrospective study which carefully analyzed registration books of newborns screened between January 2016 and December 2017. It was performed in a public hospital, located in one of the four administrative regions that assemble the Northern Health Region of the Federal District. Hospital Regional de Sobradinho has an outpatient clinic with 31 specialties, emergency units and hospitalization clinics. Among them, units of maternal-child care: gynecology and obstetrics, obstetric center, maternity, neonatal intensive care unit, intermediate care unit and kangaroo care. In this area, it is a reference for high-risk pregnancies and deliveries. Access to inpatient units by regulation and emergency is open door 66. Ministério da Saúde (BR). Portaria N° 1.459, de 24 de junho de 2011. Institui, no âmbito do Sistema Único de Saúde – SUS, a Rede Cegonha. Diario Oficial Uniao. 24 jun 2011; Seção 1:16-8. .

The screening protocol of the program is ( Figure 1 ):

Figure 1
Newborn hearing screening adopted protocol.

Transient Evoked Otoacoustic Emission (TEOAE) testings are performed by Otoread equipment. “Pass,” indicative of normal hearing, is established when minimum signal level response is greater than -12 dB, and minimum signal-to-noise ratio is 6 dB in at least 3 frequencies. BAEP exam is performed by Otometrics Accuscreen device at 35 dB, following “pass” and “fail” criteria established by the device.

As proposed by the Health Department of the Federal District, the following risk factors were evaluated: heredity, consanguinity, Intensive Care Unit (ICU) permanence, mechanical ventilation, ototoxic, hyperbilirubinemia to exchange transfusion (EXT) level, perinatal anoxia, Apgar 0 to 4 (in the first minute) and 0 to 6 (in the fifth minute), birth weight (BW) less than or equal to 1,500g, preterm newborn (PTNB), SGA, congenital infection, craniofacial anomalies, syndromes, postnatal infections and Down syndrome. The sample of live births was collected in the unit internal registry and compared with screened newborns number sample according to TEOAE and BAEP registration books.

The following data were collected from Newborn Hearing Screening program registration books: mother’s name, sex, date of examination, date of birth, RFHL and test result. Data were tabulated in Microsoft Excel: one spreadsheet for OAC testing, one for BAEP testing, and one for retesting (BAEP).

When aforementioned data were absent in the registration book, lacking information were searched in electronic medical records; records with non-existent information were excluded from the research. Data were collected using the physical book of the program because electronic medical-record research is more laborious, as it consists of a general record, with patient evolution in the service; this resource was reserved for cases in which there was incongruity in the physical record. All records were included in data analysis, except those in which information was still missing after electronic medical records analysis.

“Pass” and “fail” prevalence was established for each test based on collected data. Retesting attendance and diagnosis referral numbers were collected in BAEP registration books. From the raw data collected, percentages of each stage were established.

After data collection, chi-square test with 5% reliability index was used to perform an inferential statistical analysis, in order to calculate whether research results could be extrapolated to populations with the same parameters. For validation, Anderson-Darling test was performed to verify whether samples follow a normal distribution. Results were presented in tables and graphs.

The research followed recommendations on ethics in studies with human beings, approved by the Ethics Committee under CAEE 00620818.0.0000.5512.

RESULTS

In 2016 and 2017, 3,981 newborns were screened at the Hospital Regional de Sobradinho; 1,992 in 2016 and 1,989 in 2017. Among these, 2,963 (74.4%) presented no RFHL, and 1,018 (25.6%) did. In the service records, there were 1,948 live births in 2016 and 1,932 in 2017, making up 102.3% of newborns screened in 2016 and 103.0% in 2017. Of the 3,981 screened newborns in 2016 and 2017, 166 (4.2%) failed the test, and 118 (71.1%) attended the retest. 12 (0.3%) failed the retest, being referred for audiological diagnosis.

In 2016, 1,519 NB without RFHL were screened, of which 1,454 (95.7%) passed and 65 (4.3%) failed. Among those who failed, 23 (35.4%) failed the right ear (RE), 25 (38.5%) left ear (LE) and 17 (26.1%) both ears. In 2017, 1,444 NB without RFHL were screened, of which 1,415 (98.0%) passed and 29 (2.0%) failed. Among those who failed, 9 (31.0%) failed RE, 15 (51.7%) LE and 5 (17.2%) both ears.

In 2016, among newborns with no RFHL who failed, 56 (86%) attended retest, of which 55 (98.2%) passed and 1 (1.8%) failed. In 2017, 23 (79.3%) attended, of which 22 (95.7%) passed and 1 (4.3%) failed ( Figure 2 ).

Figure 2

In 2016, 473 NB without RFHL were screened, of which 439 (92.8%) passed and 34 (7.2%) failed. Among those who failed, 7 (20.6%) failed RE, 6 (17.6%) LE and 21 (61.8%) both ears. In 2017, 545 NB without RFHL were screened, of which 507 (93.0%) passed and 38 (7.0%) failed. Among those who failed, 4 (10.5%) failed RE, 20 (52.6%) LE and 14 (36.8%) both ears. There was no statistical significance between the failure percentage per ear within this population, with 0.8 p-value in 2016 and 0.1 in 2017.

In 2016, among newborns without RFHL who failed, 15 (44.1%) attended the retest, of which 11 (73.3%) passed and 4 (26.7%) failed. In 2017, 24 (63.2%) attended, of which 18 (75.0%) passed and 6 (25.0%) failed ( Figure 3 ).

Figure 3

DISCUSSION

JCIH recommends regular monitoring of Newborn Hearing Screening programs performance regarding coverage and “fail” percentages. As for program coverage, it can be inferred that it complies with COMUSA and JCHI recommendations of screening at least 95% of live births 22. American Academy of Pediatrics, Joint Committee on Infant Hearing. Year 2007 position statement: principles and guidelines for early hearing detection and intervention programs.

https://doi.org/10.1590/S1808-8694201000...
. These results were also achieved by another newborn hearing screening program in Brazil 77. Mattos WM, Cardoso LF, Bissani C, Pinheiro MMC, Viveiros CM, Carreirão Filho W.

https://doi.org/10.1590/S0034-7299200900...
, while literature describes programs that did not achieve this rate 88. Barreira-Nielsen, C, Futuro Neto AH, Gattaz G. Processo de implantação de Programa de Saúde Auditiva em duas maternidades públicas. Rev Soc Bras Fonoaudiol. 2007;12(2):99-105. https://doi.org/10.1590/S1516-80342007000200006

https://doi.org/10.1590/S1808-8694201100...
.

Screened newborns number exceeded that of live births. This can be justified because, according to Ordinance No. 1,459 of June 24, 2011, which establishes Stork Network, the program screens newborns from other hospitals who live in the regional, as well as newborns who, despite being born in other regions, were admitted and discharged from the hospital NICU 66. Ministério da Saúde (BR). Portaria N° 1.459, de 24 de junho de 2011. Institui, no âmbito do Sistema Único de Saúde – SUS, a Rede Cegonha. Diario Oficial Uniao. 24 jun 2011; Seção 1:16-8. .

Test failure rate was comparable to that reported in another study, performed in four maternities in Paraná, that found 5%, 3% and 2% in three of the institutions (data were not presented in the last) 1010. Stumpf CC, Gambini C, Jacob-Corteletti LCB, Roggia SM. Triagem auditiva neonatal: um estudo na cidade de Curitiba – PR. Rev. CEFAC. 2009;11(3):478-85. https://doi.org/10.1590/S1516-18462009000300016
https://doi.org/10.1590/S1516-1846200900...
, but lower than presented in studies conducted in secondary-level maternities, which found 11.7% and 25.3% 99. Onoda RM, Azevedo MF, Santos AMN. Triagem auditiva neonatal: ocorrência de falhas, perdas auditivas e indicadores de riscos. Braz J Otorhinolaryngol. 2011;77(6):775-83. https://doi.org/10.1590/S1808-86942011000600015

https://doi.org/10.1590/S1516-1846201300...
.

Regarding failures laterality, higher prevalence was observed in the left ear; however, no statistical relevance was found. A previous study showed higher prevalence of right ear failure, with no statistical significance as well 1212. Sgorla JB, Ferreira MIDC. Caracterização de um programa de triagem auditiva neonatal. Distúrb Comum. 2014 [acesso em 2018 out 18]; 26(3): 559-68.. . Another study showed a similar failure percentage in both ears 1313. Bongiolo MR, Silva ACB, Cancelier AC, Bongiolo MR, Souza MEV, Nitz VO. Avaliação dos resultados das emissões otoacústicas em hospital do sul de Santa Catarina. Rev AMRIGS. 2015 [citado 20 out 2018];59(4):1-5. Available from: http://www.amrigs.org.br/revista/59-04/01.pdf
http://www.amrigs.org.br/revista/59-04/0...
. As there is no literature consensus, it suggests no ear predominance in the percentage of hearing screening failures in newborns.

Retest attendance was 71.1%, similar to that obtained in another study, of approximately 75.7% 1414. Botelho MSN, Silva VB, Arruda LS, Kuniyoshi IC, Oliveira LLR, Oliveira AS. Newborn hearing screening in the limiar clinic in Porto Velho - Rondônia. Braz J Otorhinolaryngol. 2010;76(5):605-10. https://doi.org/10.1590/S1808-86942010000500012
https://doi.org/10.1590/S1808-8694201000...
. Percentage of referrals for audiological diagnosis was 0.3%, compliant with JCHI and COMUSA resolution that this rate should not exceed 4% of screened newborns 22. American Academy of Pediatrics, Joint Committee on Infant Hearing. Year 2007 position statement: principles and guidelines for early hearing detection and intervention programs. Pediatrics. 2007;120(4):898- 921. https://doi.org/10.1542/peds.2007-2333
https://doi.org/10.1542/peds.2007-2333...
, 44. Lewis DR, Marone SAM, Mendes BCA, Cruz OLM, Nóbrega M. Comitê Multiprofissional em Saúde Auditiva: COMUSA. Braz J Otorhinolaryngol. 2010;76(1):121-8. https://doi.org/10.1590/S1808-86942010000100020
https://doi.org/10.1590/S1808-8694201000...
. In a national study conducted in 2017, 6.02% of screened newborns were referred for audiological diagnosis 1515. Bertoldi PM, Manfredi AKS, Mitre EI. Análise dos resultados da triagem auditiva neonatal no município de Batatais. Medicina (Ribeirão Preto). 2017 [citado 20 out 2018];50(3):150-7. Available from: http://www.revistas.usp.br/rmrp/article/view/139809/135085
http://www.revistas.usp.br/rmrp/article/...
, whereas this rate was 1.7% in another study 99. Onoda RM, Azevedo MF, Santos AMN. Triagem auditiva neonatal: ocorrência de falhas, perdas auditivas e indicadores de riscos. Braz J Otorhinolaryngol. 2011;77(6):775-83. https://doi.org/10.1590/S1808-86942011000600015
https://doi.org/10.1590/S1808-8694201100...
.

As 2016 retest non-attendance rate among NB with RFHL (55.9%) exceeded that of 2017 (20.7%), it can be suggested that the UNHS program of the studied hospital reinforced guidelines on the importance of retest attendance. This is an orientation of paramount importance, as retest non-attendance delays diagnosis on probable hearing loss, making it impossible to minimize damage to language development. Lack of knowledge and understanding on the importance of auditory examination may interfere directly in early deafness identification 1616. Silva DPC, Lopez PS, Ribeiro GE, Luna MOM, Lyra JC, Montovani JC. A importância do reteste da triagem auditiva como indicador da real alteração auditiva precoce. Braz J Otorhinolaryngol. 2015;81(4):363-7. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.bjorl.2014.07.019
https://doi.org/10.1016/j.bjorl.2014.07....
.

As for hearing loss risks, prematurity was observed to be the most prevalent, corroborating a study conducted at Hospital Universitario de Santa Maria 1717. Didoné DD, Garcia MV, Kunst LR, Vieira EP, Silveira AF. Correlação dos indicadores de risco para deficiência auditiva com a “falha” na triagem auditiva neonatal. Rev Saude (Santa Maria). 2013 [citado 30 out 2018]];39(1):113-20. Available from: https://periodicos.ufsm.br/revistasaude/article/view/5750/pdf
https://periodicos.ufsm.br/revistasaude/...
, and differing from another, in which ICU permanence over five days was the most observed RFHL, and prematurity was the second one 1818. Barbosa FS, Rosa APB, Assunção TD. Triagem auditiva em pacientes advindos da Unidade de Terapia Intensiva Neonatal. Brasília, DF: Centro Universitário Planalto do Distrito Federal; 2017. Trabalho de Conclusão de Curso de Graduação em Fonoaudiologia. . Data differed from a study conducted in Maceió, in which hyperbilirubinemia was the most frequent risk factor; however, prematurity was not included among RFHL 1919. Dantas MBS, Anjos CAL, Camboim ED, Pimentel MCR. Resultados de um programa de triagem auditiva neonatal em Maceió. Rev Bras Otorrinolaringol. 2009;75(1):58-63. https://doi.org/10.1590/S0034-72992009000100009
https://doi.org/10.1590/S0034-7299200900...
. It is worth noting that JHIC does not refer to prematurity as a risk factor for hearing loss when compared in isolation 22. American Academy of Pediatrics, Joint Committee on Infant Hearing. Year 2007 position statement: principles and guidelines for early hearing detection and intervention programs. Pediatrics. 2007;120(4):898- 921. https://doi.org/10.1542/peds.2007-2333
https://doi.org/10.1542/peds.2007-2333...
. This index inclusion may be justified by the fact that PTNB have a higher risk of biological alteration in global development, what may interfere in the auditory pathway maturation in a harmful way 2020. Rechia IC. Maturação da via auditiva e a aquisição da linguagem em crianças nascidas pré-termo tardio e a termo com e sem risco psíquico [tese]. Santa Maria, RS: Centro de Ciências da Saúde da Universidade Federal de Santa Maria; 2016. .

In the study population, of 3,981 screened neonates, 1,018 (25.6%) presented one or more risk factors for hearing loss. In a survey conducted with 1,570 NB, 221 (14.1%) presented one or more RFHL 99. Onoda RM, Azevedo MF, Santos AMN. Triagem auditiva neonatal: ocorrência de falhas, perdas auditivas e indicadores de riscos. Braz J Otorhinolaryngol. 2011;77(6):775-83. https://doi.org/10.1590/S1808-86942011000600015
https://doi.org/10.1590/S1808-8694201100...
. In another study, the sample was made up of 1,626 newborns, of which 163 (10.0%) presented one or more RFHL 1919. Dantas MBS, Anjos CAL, Camboim ED, Pimentel MCR. Resultados de um programa de triagem auditiva neonatal em Maceió. Rev Bras Otorrinolaringol. 2009;75(1):58-63. https://doi.org/10.1590/S0034-72992009000100009
https://doi.org/10.1590/S0034-7299200900...
. This study reported a higher prevalence of newborns with RFHL when compared to studies aforementioned. According to Ordinance No. 47 of March 13, 2014, HRS is considered a reference for high-risk deliveries to a few neighboring municipalities, justifying the high rate of newborns with RFHL within this population, thus increasing the prevalence of RFHL in newborns 2121. Distrito Federal (BR), Secretaria de Estado de Saúde. Portaria N° 47, de 13 de março de 2014. Institui o Mapa de Vinculação do Componente Parto e Nascimento da Rede Cegonha e normatiza os critérios de admissão hospitalar, encaminhamento e remoção das mulheres gestantes no âmbito da Secretaria de Estado de Saúde do Distrito Federal. Diario Oficial Distrito Federal. 13 mar 2014; Seção 1:16-8. .

As limitations, this study did not investigate demographic factors influence and type of delivery on hearing screening results; moreover, it was impossible to define the percentage of coverage of screened newborns, due to the lack of information on their birthplace.

The program reached JCIH and COMUSA recommended rates on diagnosis referrals, despite RFHL high rate within the study population. As for coverage, it was not possible to affirm that the program complies with these committees’ recommendations. Most prevalent RFHL within the population was prematurity, followed by ototoxic use and ICU permanence.
