Correction of Conductive Hearing Loss in Children

Otolaryngologic Clinics of North America, 1994
The focus of this article is the diagnosis and surgical correction of conductive hearing loss in children without aural atresia, cholesteatoma, or otitis media with effusion. An overview of the incidence of congenital conductive hearing loss and the types of middle ear anomalies are provided. Techniques of surgical correction are described with respect

Congenital Conductive Hearing Loss in Dyschondrosteosis

Annals of Otology, Rhinology & Laryngology, 2003
Conductive hearing loss was detected in a boy with a previous diagnosis of dyschondrosteosis. Dyschondrosteosis is a rare inherited condition characterized by mesomelic dwarfism and Madelung's deformity. The syndrome can be caused by mutations in the SHOX gene, and in that case, the pattern of inheritance is pseudoautosomal dominant.

The impact of conductive hearing loss on balance

Clinical Otolaryngology, 2019
AbstractBackgroundBalance is a complex process involving the coordinated activities of multiple sensory, motor and biomechanical components. Balance function may be disturbed in subjects suffering from hearing loss but the impairment has been attributed to the pathology underlying the hearing loss.AimThe purpose of the study was to investigate the ...

Effects of Conductive Hearing Loss

Journal of Speech and Hearing Disorders, 1980
This paper reviews the empirical evidence implicating conductive hearing impairment as a causal agent in learning disability, language dysfunction, and central auditory problems. From this review one can conclude that there are few, if any, valid data linking conductive hearing impairment to any of these problems.

Effects of Occlusion and Conductive Hearing Loss on Bone‐Conducted cVEMP

Otolaryngology–Head and Neck Surgery, 2020
ObjectiveTo evaluate the effects of conductive hearing loss and occlusion on bone‐conducted cervical vestibular evoked myogenic potentials (cVEMPs).Study DesignProspective cohort study conducted in the year 2018. The right ear of each volunteer was evaluated under 3 conditions by using bone‐conducted cVEMPs: normal (open external auditory canal ...

Conductive hearing loss and speech development

Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology, 1988
The central issue about conductive hearing loss and speech development is the impact of mild to moderate hearing loss that may be intermittent. Although opinions vary considerably about what this does to the ability of the child to learn, most studies support a position of concern.

Loss of conductivity in Operating Room Shoes

Journal of Clinical Engineering, 1978
The effect of dirt encountered during normal use on the conductivity of operating room footwear has been studied. Booties, sneakers, and shoes having relatively larger conductive area remained conductive throughout the testing period. Shoes and clogs having relatively smaller conductive contact area were found to lose conductivity sooner, and, in more ...

Conductive High-Tone Hearing Loss

Archives of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, 1971
In purely conductive hearing impairments the audiometric pattern of the air-conduction threshold is flat or slightly rising, whereas sensorineural impairment frequently shows an increase in the hearing loss at higher frequencies. This study shows that purely conductive defects due to discontinuity of the ossicular chain, can, under certain conditions ...

Simulated Conductive Hearing Loss in Children

Journal of the American Academy of Audiology, 2004
Otitis media with effusion (OME) often results in hearing loss for children with the condition. In order to provide appropriate and effective audiologic management, it is important to understand the impact of OME on speech recognition ability when hearing loss is present.
