The importance of early identification of hearing loss is summarized in the report issued by the United States (US) Department of Health and Human Services,1 entitled "Healthy People 2000." The goal is to reduce the average age at which children with significant hearing impairment are identified to no more than 12 months. The report states: The future of a child born with significant hearing impairment depends to a very large degree on early identification (ie, audiological diagnosis before 12 months of age) followed by immediate and appropriate intervention.
