Costs of different strategies for neonatal hearing screening: a modelling approach

Table 3

Costs per child detected with a bilateral hearing loss ⩾ 40 dB3-150 and positive predictive value for a hearing loss ⩾ 40 dB in the better ear3-150 for three stage screening procedures

  • 3-150 Although children with both unilateral and bilateral losses will be detected, outcomes are based only on detecting children with bilateral hearing loss.

  • 3-151 No data could be found on the failure rates per ear in AABR screening. Therefore no results are given for AABR screening.
