This retrospective observational study was performed in newborn hearing screening center between January 2013, and May 2015.All of the newborns with no risk factors were screened by otoacoustic emission test and timing and results of OAE and AABR tests were recorded.Overall, 1396 infants were studied. Results showed that there was no significant difference between OAE failure rates between two delivery mode groups after 3 day. Post ponding the first OAE after cesarean delivery should be considered to improve success rate, minimize maternal anxiety, and decrease costs.
