ABRs are typically performed in the following scenarios: - Newborn hearing screening as part of universal screening programs. - In infants and children with risk factors for hearing loss, such as premature birth, family history of hearing loss, or infections like CMV. - When behavioral hearing tests are inconclusive or not feasible due to the child's age or developmental status. - To monitor the hearing of children receiving treatments that could affect hearing, such as certain antibiotics or chemotherapy agents.
