In a recent article, Bess and Paradise (Pediatrics 93 (1994) 330-334) rejected the recommendation of the National Institutes of Health that all infants be screened for hearing loss on being released from their birthing hospital. This article responds to their objections with data from the literature and operational newborn hearing screening programs. These data show that universal newborn hearing screening is practicable, effective, cost-efficient, and safe, and concludes that such programs should be implemented without further delay.
在最近的一篇文章中，贝丝和帕拉迪斯（《儿科学》93卷（1994年）330 - 334页）拒绝了美国国立卫生研究院提出的所有婴儿在从分娩医院出院时都应接受听力损失筛查的建议。本文用文献数据和正在实施的新生儿听力筛查项目回应了他们的反对意见。这些数据表明，普遍的新生儿听力筛查是可行的、有效的、具有成本效益的且安全的，并得出结论，此类项目应立即实施，不再拖延。
