Unilateral Hearing Loss: Prevalence, Causes, Consequences and Available Remedies
Introduction: The prevalence of unilateral sensory neural hearing loss is 3 to 6 in every 1000 people and this prevalence will be about 3 to 5 percent by including conductive hearing loss. Studies have shown that people with unilateral hearing loss are having problems in speech and language development. Nowadays the available options for treatment and rehabilitation of people with unilateral he...
متن کاملChanges in auditory perceptions and cortex resulting from hearing recovery after extended congenital unilateral hearing loss
Monaural hearing induces auditory system reorganization. Imbalanced input also degrades time-intensity cues for sound localization and signal segregation for listening in noise. While there have been studies of bilateral auditory deprivation and later hearing restoration (e.g., cochlear implants), less is known about unilateral auditory deprivation and subsequent hearing improvement. We investi...
متن کاملAmplification considerations for children with minimal or mild bilateral hearing loss and unilateral hearing loss.
Children with minimal or mild bilateral hearing loss and unilateral hearing loss are at higher risk for academic, speech-language, and social-emotional difficulties than their normal hearing peers. The choice to fit infants with moderate or greater degrees of bilateral hearing loss has been standard practice for most clinicians, but for those with minimal or mild bilateral hearing loss or unila...
متن کاملUnilateral hearing loss in children with shunt-treated hydrocephalus.
This study investigated the characteristics of hearing loss in children with ventriculoperitoneal (VP) shunted hydrocephalus. Twelve hydrocephalic children with patent VP shunts participated. The etiology of the hydrocephalus was either intraventricular hemorrhage or spina bifida. Audiometric examination included pure-tone air conduction thresholds, tympanometry, contralateral and ipsilateral a...
متن کاملHearing Loss in Children With Asymptomatic Congenital Cytomegalovirus Infection.
OBJECTIVES To assess the prevalence, characteristics, and risk of sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) in children with congenital cytomegalovirus infection identified through hospital-based newborn screening who were asymptomatic at birth compared with uninfected children. METHODS We included 92 case-patients and 51 controls assessed by using auditory brainstem response and behavioral audiometr...
