OAE (Otoacoustic Emissions) Hearing Test for Newborns – Early Hearing Screening You Can Trust

Hearing plays a vital role in a child’s speech, language, and overall developmental growth. Identifying hearing concerns at the earliest stage allows timely intervention and better long-term outcomes. At Savera Children Hospital, we offer OAE (Otoacoustic Emissions) Hearing Tests for Newborns, ensuring early detection and expert evaluation in a safe, baby-friendly environment.

Recognized as the best child care hospital in Faridabad, Savera Children Hospital is committed to providing comprehensive newborn screening services that support healthy development from the very beginning.

What is the OAE Hearing Test?

The OAE (Otoacoustic Emissions) test is a simple, painless, and non-invasive hearing screening performed for newborn babies. It checks how well the inner ear (cochlea) responds to sound. During the test:

  • A small soft probe is gently placed in the baby’s ear.

  • Soft clicking sounds are played.

  • The device measures the echo (emission) produced by the inner ear in response to sound.

If the cochlea is functioning properly, it produces an echo that the machine records. If no echo is detected, further evaluation may be recommended.

The entire procedure takes only a few minutes and can often be performed while the baby is sleeping peacefully.

 

Why is Newborn Hearing Screening Important?

Hearing loss at birth may not always show obvious signs. Without early screening, it can go unnoticed for months or even years, potentially affecting:

  • Speech development

  • Language skills

  • Social interaction

  • Learning ability

Early detection allows timely medical management, hearing aids (if required), or further specialized care—ensuring the child reaches developmental milestones on time.

 

Who Should Undergo the OAE Test?

The OAE test is recommended for all newborns, especially:

✔ Babies admitted to NICU
✔ Premature or low birth weight infants
✔ Babies with family history of hearing loss
✔ Newborns with infections during pregnancy
✔ Babies with birth complications

Routine newborn hearing screening is a critical part of preventive pediatric care.

At Savera Children Hospital, we use advanced and calibrated OAE equipment to ensure accurate results. The test is completely safe and does not cause any discomfort to the baby. Our trained healthcare professionals conduct the screening in a calm and hygienic setting, prioritizing your baby’s comfort and safety.

Early Detection for a Brighter Future
