Systematic review of knowledge of, attitudes towards, and practices for newborn hearing screening among healthcare professionals

The success of newborn hearing screening programs lies in the timely identification, diagnosis, and management of children with hearing loss accomplished via a multidisciplinary newborn hearing screening (NHS) team.
