Babies born very preterm were seven times more likely to develop
hearing loss, while those born moderately preterm and late-preterm were more
than two times and 1.5 times as likely, respectively, compared with infants
born at term, Finnish researchers reported in Pediatrics. The risk of visual
impairment also decreased with advancing gestational age.
