Notes
* Each jurisdiction’s submitted data underwent a cleaning and error check process. Jurisdictions reporting ≥20% of total screened infants in the “unknown” category, for each demographic variable, were excluded from this analysis.
≠ Percentage of infants screened for each category is calculated among the total occurrent births (i.e. % Males Screened = (( # Total Pass Screening:Male + Total Not Pass Screening:Male) / # Total Occurrent Births:Male ) * 100).
^ Percentage of infants receiving diagnostic testing for each category is calculated among the total number of infants not passing hearing screening (i.e. % Males Receiving Diagnostic Testing After Not Passing Hearing Screening = (( # Total with No Hearing Loss:Male + Total with Permanent Hearing Loss:Male) / # Total Not Pass Screening:Male ) * 100).
α Percentage of infants enrolled in Part C EI services for each category is calculated among the total number of infants with hearing loss (i.e. % Males Enrolled in Part C EI After Diagnosed with Hearing Loss = ( # Total Enrolled in Part C EI: Male / # Total with Hearing Loss:Male ) * 100).
