Validity of the items included in a questionnaire for mass screening for hearing impairment of infants and the risk factors for hearing impairment of 4-month-old infants were studied. Qualitative differences in the questionnaire items were found that would be related to decisions regarding need for thorough examination or followup of a case. The combined use of the risk factors and the questionnaire for 4-month-old infants may considerably reduce the number of false positive cases. A case whose number of negative items was three or less and who had at least one risk factor at 4 months of age was shown to have a high risk of auditory impairment. The cut-off point for the followup screening questionnaires at 7- and 10-month old infants was determined to be at three or less and four or more items.
研究了用于婴儿听力障碍大规模筛查的问卷中所包含项目的有效性以及4个月大婴儿听力障碍的风险因素。发现问卷项目存在质量差异，这些差异与关于病例是否需要进行全面检查或随访的决策有关。风险因素与4个月大婴儿问卷的联合使用可能会大幅减少假阳性病例的数量。结果表明，阴性项目数为3个或更少且在4个月大时至少有一个风险因素的病例，有较高的听力障碍风险。确定7个月和10个月大婴儿随访筛查问卷的临界点分别为3个或更少项目以及4个或更多项目。
