Intro to Newborn Hearing Screening in Spanish


Listen Later

Welcome to the first lesson in our series on Newborn Hearing Screening in Spanish!

This series was requested by one of our listeners, Hyun from Maryland. Hyun is a newborn hearing technician who wants to learn phrases in Spanish for a newborn hearing screening. 

Even if you never plan to perform a newborn hearing screening, I promise you will learn helpful vocabulary and phrases for your clinical practice.  

In this series of 3 lessons,

  1. We will learn how to ask about childhood hearing loss on either side of the family and complications during pregnancy.
  2. As we describe the procedure, we will learn how to explain that the earbud will play chimes, that it is not painful, and that we can soothe the baby using the sucking reflex.
  3. Finally, we will learn how to express a good result and explain that a bad result may be due to fluid in the ear and that we must allow some time for the ears to dry before retesting.
  4. This first lesson is free! To keep learning with us, become a member!
