Project Description:
Wyoming has established a system for universal newborn hearing screening in all 22 birthing hospitals. Presently, the data tracking system is handled via subcontract with the audiologist at a local developmental center who is the primary architect of and trainer for the newborn hearing screening system. While functional, the newborn hearing screening system is not integrated with Wyoming's metabolic screening system or the electronic birth records. This project will develop a system that integrates newborn hearing screening with metabolic screening and the recently developed vision screening system.
