PRESBYCUSIS
PRESBYCUSIS
 SNHL ASSOCIATED WITH PHYSIOLOGICAL AGEING PROCESS IN THE EAR
 Manifests at the age of 65yrs
 If early,
* hereditary predisposition
* chronic noise exposure
* generalised vascular disease
PATHOLOGICAL TYPES
 MECHANICAL/ COCHLEAR CONDUCTIVE PRESBYCUSIS
* basilar membrane stiffening
* audiogram is sloping type
SENSORY PRESBYCUSIS
Degeneration of organ of corti
Hair cell atrophy seen
basal coil progress apex
affects
higher frequency
 NEURAL PRESBYCUSIS
*ITS MOST COMMON
* Degeneration of cells of spiral ganglion
Basal coil apex
NOTE: speech discrimination is poor
STRIAL OR METABOLIC PRESBYCUSIS
Atrophy of stria vascularies
physical + chemical process of energy production affected
NOTE : Audiogram is flat
but speech discrimination is good
diagnosis
 Audiogram (PTA) SHOWS
 B/L
 Progressive SNHL
HIGH FREQUENCY PTA SHOWS
Downsloping audiogram
TREATMENT
HEARING AIDS
COCHLEAR IMPLANTS
THE DEAF CHILD
 Children with profound 90 db loss or total deafness fail to
develop speech termed deaf mute/ deaf and dumb
Aetiology
* Birth (prenatal)
* During birth ( perinatal)
* postnatal
Prenatal causes
 They may pertain to the infant 0r mother
 INFANT FACTORS GENETIC
 INFANT FACTORS-----inner ear anomalies
NON GENETIC
ANOMALIES - NONSYNDROMIC and SYNDROMIC
ANOMALIES
 SCHEIBE DYSPLASIA
 IT ismost common inner ear anomaly
 bony labyrinth is normal
 superior part of membranous labyrinth is normal
 dysplasia of saccule and cochlea = cochleosacular dysplasia
 AR non syndromic trait
ALEXANDER DYSPLASIA
 It affects only the basal turn of membranous cochlea
 High frequencies are affected
 Residual hearing is + in low frequencies
 Can be exploited by amplification with hearing aids
BING SIEBENMANN DYSPLASIA
 COMPLETE ABSENCE OF MEMBRANOUS LABYRINTH
MICHEL DYSPLAIA
 Complete absence of bony and membranous labyrinth
 Petrous apex is absent but external and middle ear may be completely
unaffected
 No hearing aids or cochlear implantation can be used
MONDINI DYSPLASIA
 ONLY basal coil is present or cochlea is 1.5 turn
 Incomplete partition between the scalae due to absence of osseous spiral
lamina
 u/L or B/L
 This deformity seen in
 pendred
 Waardenburg
 branchio oto renal
 treacher Collins
ENLARGED VESTIBULAR AQUEDUCT
 Vestibular aqueduct is enlarged >2mm
 Endolymphatic sacalso enlarged
 Can be seen on t2 MRI
 It causes early onset snhl --progressive
 Vertigo may be present
 Perilymphatic fistula may occur
Semicircular CANAL
MALFORMATION
 BOTH SUPERIOR and lateral
 Only lateral semi-circular canal
 Identified on imaging techniques
MATERNAL FACTORS
 Infections during pregnancy
 Drugs during pregnancy
 Radiation to mother in 1st trimester
 Other factors --- nutritional deficiency ,DM, toxaemia, thyroid
deficiency,maternal alcoholism
Perinatal causes
 They relate to cause during birth or in early neonatal period
 1. anoxia
 2. LBW AND PREMATURITY
 Birth injuries
 Neonatal jaundice bilirubin level >20mg%
 Neonatal meningitis
 Sepsis
 Ototoxic drugs
POSTNATAL CAUSES
 1.GENETIC
 2. NON GENETIC;
VIRAL INFECTIONS
MENINGITIS AND ENCEPHALITIS
SCRETORY OM
OTOTOXIC DRUGS
TRAUMA
NI DEAFNESS
EVALUATION OF A DEAF CHILD
 FINDING THE CAUSE; -----detailed history
Suspician of hearing loss
 the child sleeps through loud noises unperturbed
 Fails to develop speech at 1-2 yrs
 Poor performance in school
Risk factors for HL in children
 Family history of HL
 Prenatal infection TORCH
 Craniofacial anomalies
 LBW
 Hyperbilrubinaemia
 Ototoxic medications
 Bacterial meningitis
 APGAR SCORE 0-4 @1min
0-6@5min
ASSESSMENT OF HEARING IN INFANTS
AUDITORY BRAINSTEM RESPONSES
BEHAVIOUR OBSERVATION AUDIOMETRY
CONDITIONING TECHNIQUES
