Diagnosis and Treatment of Congenital Sensorineural Hearing Loss

Current Otorhinolaryngology Reports
Divya A Chari, Dylan K Chan

Abstract

The aim of this report is to review current literature regarding the work-up and management of congenital sensorineural hearing loss. Diagnostic evaluation of a newborn with sensorineural hearing loss begins with a complete audiologic evaluation and comprehensive history and physical exam. This review presents a diagnostic algorithm for the work-up of congenital hearing loss, focusing on the three following modalities: cytomegalovirus testing, genetic evaluation, and imaging. Newborn hearing loss is a common problem and may be attributed to genetic and non-genetic factors. Complete diagnostic evaluation and treatment are essential for preventing delays in language development. Treatment consists of early intervention services and consideration of hearing aid amplification and cochlear implantation.
