AIM
Universal neonatal hearing screening Project started in Albania for the first time in January 2009. It was made possible by the support of Magis, an Italian NGO, as a grant of Italian government to the Albanian health system. The aim of this study was to assess the prevalence of PCHI in Albania.
METHODS
Universal neonatal hearing screening in Albania started on January 2009 until December 2012. Overall, 47341 newborns were tested. The screening covered the three main cities of Albania; Tirana, Shkodra and Fier.
RESULTS
Overall, 93 babies resulted with bilateral hearing loss after the two steps screening. In total, 85 babies had hearing aids, 8 babies decided to get medical treatment abroad. The incidence at the end of the project is 2.1 babies with bilateral hearing impairment per 1000 births/year (2.1/1000 births).
CONCLUSION
Our findings are generally in line with previous reports on this matter. Future studies in Albania should be conducted to assess the prevalence and determinants of PCHI in Albania and in other transitional settings.
目的
2009年1月，阿尔巴尼亚首次启动了新生儿听力普遍筛查项目。该项目在意大利非政府组织“马吉斯”（Magis）的支持下得以开展，这是意大利政府向阿尔巴尼亚卫生系统提供的一笔赠款。本研究的目的是评估阿尔巴尼亚永久性儿童听力损伤（PCHI）的患病率。
方法
阿尔巴尼亚的新生儿听力普遍筛查于2009年1月开始，至2012年12月结束。总共对47341名新生儿进行了检测。筛查覆盖了阿尔巴尼亚的三个主要城市：地拉那、斯库台和发罗拉。
结果
经过两步筛查，共有93名婴儿被诊断为双侧听力损失。其中，85名婴儿佩戴了助听器，8名婴儿决定到国外接受治疗。项目结束时，双侧听力障碍的发病率为每1000例出生中有2.1名婴儿（2.1/1000例出生）。
结论
我们的研究结果总体上与此前关于该问题的报告一致。未来应在阿尔巴尼亚开展研究，以评估该国及其他转型环境中PCHI的患病率和决定因素。
