Abstract：
BACKGROUND: Early detection and intervention of hearing issues in newborns are crucial for their auditory and speech development, necessitating newborn hearing screenings. This study aimed to investigate the impact of delivery methods, specifically natural delivery and cesarean section, on newborn hearing screening outcomes.
METHODS: A retrospective analysis was conducted on data from 600 newborns delivered at The First Affiliated Hospital of Shaoyang University between January 2020 and January 2023. The initial hearing screenings used the AccuScreen otoacoustic emission instrument. The study examined the influence of delivery method on the pass rates of newborns\' first hearing screenings within and beyond 48 h postbirth.
RESULTS: The pass rates for the initial hearing screenings, conducted within and after 48 h of birth, were significantly higher in the natural delivery group compared to the cesarean section group (P < 0.05). Furthermore, multivariate analysis identified the delivery method as a significant factor influencing the pass rates of newborns\' first hearing screenings.
CONCLUSIONS: The mode of delivery appears to affect the results of the initial hearing screenings of newborns, though further research is needed to validate these findings.

摘要：
背景：新生儿听力问题的早期发现和干预对于他们的听觉和言语发育至关重要，需要新生儿听力筛查。本研究旨在调查分娩方式的影响，特别是自然分娩和剖宫产，新生儿听力筛查结果。
方法：对2020年1月至2023年1月在邵阳大学附属第一医院分娩的600名新生儿的数据进行了回顾性分析。最初的听力筛查使用AccuScreen耳声发射仪器。该研究检查了分娩方式对新生儿出生后48小时及以后的首次听力筛查通过率的影响。
结果：初次听力筛查的通过率，在出生后48小时内和之后进行，自然分娩组明显高于剖宫产组(P<0.05)。此外，多变量分析确定分娩方法是影响新生儿首次听力筛查通过率的重要因素。
结论：分娩方式似乎会影响新生儿初次听力筛查的结果，尽管需要进一步的研究来验证这些发现。
