The Benefits Feasibility and Acceptability of Extended Screening Testing in Newborn Babies Who Are Referred for Further Hearing Assessment After Their Neonatal Screen (BEST)
This study will look at the feasibility and acceptability of testing newborn babies who are referred after their newborn hearing screen for an infection called congenital Cytomegalovirus (cCMV).
Around 1 in every 100 to 200 babies is born with this virus, and although most remain well it causes 1 in 5 cases of childhood deafness.
Knowing that a baby is infected shortly after birth could have significant benefit since a treatment is now available, but screening programs need to be feasible and acceptable.
This study aims to evaluate targeted screening for cCMV by taking samples (saliva and urine) from babies who do not pass their newborn hearing screening.
The investigators want to see if we can find a quick, reliable and parentally acceptable way to screen babies who fail their hearing test for this virus.

研究人群
This population this study examines is infants in Newcastle and South West London who are referred for more hearing tests after their neonatal hearing screen.
This cohort of patients will be offered screening tests for congenital CMV infection.
描述
Inclusion Criteria:
- All infants 'referred' for one or both ears following hospital-based newborn hearing screening in North of Tyne and South West London areas. Babies with other known causes of SNHL (e.g. hereditary) and those admitted to Neonatal Intensive Care Units will be included.
Exclusion Criteria:
- Exclusions to this study will be infants with parents/guardians not willing/able to give informed consent or children known to have congenital CMV by antenatal testing or clinical features of CMV infection at birth.

Feasibility of targeted screening for congenital CMV
大体时间:30 months

Acceptability of extended screening tests
大体时间:30 months

Parental acceptability as determined by anxiety measures (in comparison to published data in parents whose infants are referred for failing their hearing screen, but where no mention of extended screening is made) and parental responses to extended questionnaires about the ease of the process of obtaining samples.
