TI  - Universal newborn screening for permanent childhood hearing impairment: an 8-year 
      follow-up of a controlled trial.
PG  - 660-2
AB  - An 8-year follow-up study of the birth cohort of babies enrolled in the Wessex 
      controlled trial of universal newborn screening (UNS) for permanent childhood 
      hearing impairment (PCHI) was undertaken to establish whether UNS would increase 
      the proportion of all true cases of PCHI in children aged 7-9 years who are 
      referred early. The proportion referred before 6 months of age increased from 11 
      of 35 (31%) children with true PCHI born during periods without UNS to 23 of 31 
      (74%) born during periods with UNS (difference 43%, 95% CI 19-60). UNS leads to 
      early referral of PCHI.
