Hi Thank for asking to HCM.
Hi , as per your clinical history it appears as your son are having Congenital hearing loss.
Since BERA & OAE show no stimulus & if BERA report show no Vth wave , use bilateral digital hearing aids .
Your son need Cochlear Implant surgery as soon as possible to develop hearing sense & speaking.
Hope this helps , Thanks. I hope this helps. Hope this was useful.
