Hearing Screening-Driven Investigation of Newborns for Congenital Cytomegalovirus Infection at a German University Hospital

2026-05-07

Abstract excerpt

Congenital Cytomegalovirus (cCMV) infection is the leading non-genetic cause of sensorineural hearing loss in newborns. Systematic nationwide screening programs are lacking. Antiviral valganciclovir therapy could improve auditory outcomes if initiated within the first 30 days of life, making timely diagnosis crucial. To address this, we investigated whether a hearing screening-based protocol is suitable. Between 2...
