Congenital or early acquired sensory loss places a child at risk of difficulties with language, communication, social, and cognitive development. This includes any degree of vision loss, hearing loss, and combined vision and hearing loss, also known as dual sensory loss or deafblindness.

SUMMARYAt the height of an epidemic of poliomyelities at the end of 1961, four patients were admitted to Prince Henry Hospital with the clinical syndrome of acute transverse myelitis. The level of sensory loss ascended in three patients, two of whom died.

AbstractThe human brain has the remarkable ability to adapt to changes in its environment by benefiting from its ‘plastic’ properties. Following brain injury, the amputation of a limb, or the loss of a sensory input such as peripheral blindness, brain circuitry often seems to be able to reorganize itself in order to compensate for the handicap by being

This chapter focuses on degenerative optic neuropathy. The retina and optic nerve share their embryological origin with the brain and are widely regarded as part of the central nervous system. Retinal microvasculature and neuronal components offer a unique ‘window’ on tissues that are closely allied to intracranial structures.

Hearing loss is a major public health issue. Hearing loss increases with age and nearly two-thirds of adults over the age of 70 have hearing loss. Epidemiologic studies have demonstrated that hearing loss in older adults is strongly and independently associated with accelerated cognitive decline and incident dementia.

Sensory disturbance can either be a complete loss (anaesthesia) or a reduction (hypoaesthesia) in the ability to perceive the sensory input. Dysaesthesia is an abnormal increase in the perception of normal sensory stimuli. Hyperalgesia is an increased sensitivity to normally painful stimuli, and allodynia is the perception of usually innocuous stimuli ...

Living Productively with Sensory Loss
Journal of Women & Aging, 1994As the avenues for fully perceiving and experiencing life, our sensory organs are the bridge between Self and the outside world. Of the many disorders affecting the senses of the older woman, those that affect vision and hearing have the greatest potential for disrupting her activities of daily living, and diminishing her quality of life and level of ...

Quantitative sensory testing cannot differentiate simulated sensory loss from sensory neuropathy
Neurology, 2003To differentiate the quantitative sensory testing (QST) results of subjects simulating small and large fiber sensory loss from those of normal subjects and subjects with sensory peripheral neuropathy.QST is used to measure sensory thresholds in clinical, epidemiologic, and research studies.
