Children With Auditory Neuropathy Spectrum Disorder (ANSD)
In 1991, Arnold Starr and colleagues described an 11-year-old child with the paradoxic findings of absent auditory brainstem responses in the presence of normal cochlear microphonics (CMs) and otoacoustic emissions (OAEs). The child demonstrated severely impaired speech understanding despite a mild loss of hearing sensitivity. Further evaluation showed impaired temporal processing as exhibited ...
متن کاملAmplification Options in Children with Auditory Neuropathy Spectrum Disorder
Auditory neuropathy spectrum disorder (ANSD) is a specific form of hearing loss characterized by the presence of normal or near-normal Otoacoustic Emissions (OAEs) but the absence of normal middle ear muscle reflex and severely abnormal or completely absent auditory brainstem response (ABRs). Amplification is considered a dilemma in such disorder with a lot of debates. This article will review ...
متن کاملManagement of children with auditory neuropathy spectrum disorder (ANSD).
INTRODUCTION ANSD is a challenging problem. OBJECTIVE To present our experience on management of the children with ANSD with respect to clinical data. METHODS This retrospective study included all children younger than 16 years of age who applied to the department between 2005 and 2013 (with the exception of newborn hearing screening NHS referrals). The data were derived from pure tone, OAE...
متن کاملPlasticity in the developing auditory cortex: evidence from children with sensorineural hearing loss and auditory neuropathy spectrum disorder.
The developing auditory cortex is highly plastic. As such, the cortex is both primed to mature normally and at risk for reorganizing abnormally, depending upon numerous factors that determine central maturation. From a clinical perspective, at least two major components of development can be manipulated: (1) input to the cortex and (2) the timing of cortical input. Children with sensorineural h...
متن کاملAn Update on Auditory Neuropathy Spectrum Disorder in Children
Auditory neuropathy spectrum disorder (ANSD) is a form of hearing impairment in which cochlear (outer hair cell) function appears normal but afferent neural activity in the auditory pathway is disordered. It is now over 20 years since the first paediatric ANSD cases appeared in the literature and over 15 years since the disorder was identified in infant populations. In the ensuing period our un...
