A mother cradled her slumbering infant in her arms in a testing center in Guam as she watched an audiologist in Colorado conduct a diagnostic test to determine whether or not her baby has a hearing loss. The remote test was held on Oct. 19 and marked the first technology-enabled distance diagnostic testing for hearing loss on very young infants on the island.
