A. hi hearing is measured in decibels hearing level. for an OAE test ,the range of 30db hl is considered the upper limit . If a baby fares more than 30 Dbhl ,it is assumed that some hearing loss is present . the mentioned test only check for hearing impairment that has taken place at the time of birth. it could be because of pregnancy related issues or genetics. However ,it doesn't mean that a child can not have hearing impairment in the future.
