At Suraksha’s ENT clinic, we offer Otoacoustic Emissions (OAE) screening as a vital part of newborn hearing assessment. Early detection of hearing issues plays a crucial role in a child's speech, language, and cognitive development. Our OAE screening ensures that any auditory concern is identified and addressed within the first few days or weeks of life.
The OAE test is a quick, non-invasive procedure that checks the function of the inner ear (cochlea), especially the outer hair cells. A small probe is placed in the baby’s ear, emitting soft sounds and measuring the ear's natural response. The test is painless and usually completed while the baby is asleep or calm.
Scope of Services:
- Accurate and early identification of any hearing concerns
- Immediate results with clear reports
- Gentle care by professionals trained in neonatal screening
