11 182 newborn infants have had their hearing thresholds screened by automatically recording crib motion before and after a test sound. An inexpensive motion transducer translates the baby(s) movements onto a multichannel strip-chart recorder (batch testing) or a single channel recorder (individual testing). Records are read off-line and scored positive if there is a change in movement within 2.5 sec after the test sound. "Passing or failing" a baby requires about one minute's clerical scoring time, and is therefore both economical and simple. We have detected 33 neonates with serious hearing losses and perhaps missed one on long-term follow-up. This amounts to a deafness incidence of 1:329 live births. In the Intensive Care/Premature nurseries the incidence is 1:62.
11182名新生儿通过在测试声音前后自动记录婴儿床的运动来筛查听力阈值。一个廉价的运动传感器将婴儿的运动转换到多通道条形图记录仪（批量测试）或单通道记录仪（个体测试）上。记录在离线状态下读取，如果在测试声音后2.5秒内运动有变化，则记为阳性。对一名婴儿进行“通过或未通过”评分大约需要一分钟的文书记录时间，因此既经济又简单。我们已经检测出33名患有严重听力损失的新生儿，长期随访中可能漏诊了1例。这相当于活产婴儿中耳聋发生率为1:329。在重症监护室/早产儿保育室中，发生率为1:62。
