Summary

This study looked at whether it's possible to diagnose congenital CMV infection and confirm hearing loss in newborns who failed their newborn hearing screening, all before they turn one month old.

The goal was to see how quickly and reliably these diagnoses could be made, which could help guide early treatment and support.
