Targeted Screening for Congenital Cytomegalovirus in the Newborn Hearing Screening Program: A Population‐Based Cohort Study
In our setting, targeted screening for cCMV resulted in a high NNT of almost 500 to identify one newborn infant with cCMV-related SNHL, reflecting a low incidence of cCMV-related SNHL and a high risk of false-positive hearing screening.
