Your Child's Hearing—Six Danger Signals
SPRfRC SPORTS
Despite infant hearing
alert programs in most hos-
pitals, many children who
have hearing problems are
not diagnosed properly.
Audiologists with the
National Technical Institute
for the Deaf (NTID) at
Rochester Institute of Tech-
nology have outlined six
danger signals that may be
symptoms of a child with a
hearing problem.
• The baby doesn’t act
startled when someone claps
sharply within three to six
feet;
• At three months the
baby doesn’t turn his eyes
toward the sound;
• At eight months to
one year the child doesn’t
turn toward a whispered
voice, or the rattle of a
spoon stirring in a cup three
feet away;
• At two years the child
can’t identify an object
when you speak its name,
can’t repeat a word when
asked just once, can’t repeat
a phrase, and doesn’t use a
few short phrases when
talking.
• The doesn’t wake up
or become disturbed by
loud sounds, doesn’t re-
spond when called, uses ges-
tures almost exclusively in-
stead of talking to tell you
his or her needs, or watches
your face intently;
Specialists say it's possible
to correct some hearing
problems at an early stage.
• The child has a history
of upper respiratory infec-
tion and chronic middle ear
trouble.
If you detect any of these
six danger signals, it’s time
to have your child’s hearing
tested by your family doctor,
pediatrician or an audiologist
at a speech and hearing
center.
