  1. Effectiveness of different medical interventions implemented when a change in hearing status is detected during ototoxicity monitoring

    … cochleotoxicity, patients' hearing thresholds are monitored (i.e., cochleotoxicity monitoring) when they are being treated with cochleotoxic aminoglycosides. Cochleotoxicity monitoring is performed to detect a significant threshold shift (STS) early and prevent further deterioration …

  2. Genetic and pharmacokinetics factors associated with susceptibility to kanamycin induced cochleotoxicity in a cohort of patients undergoing MDR/RR-TB treatment

    … for MDR/RR-TB previously. Participants' hearing thresholds (0.25 to16kHz) were prospectively monitored for cochleotoxicity at the start of their treatment (baseline), and at 4, 8 and 12 weeks. The American SpeechLanguage- Hearing Association criteria (ASHA, 1994) were used to identify significant

  3. Ototoxicity Monitoring using Automated Extended High-Frequency Audiometry and the Sensitive Range of Ototoxicity in Patients with MDR-TB

    … testing time efficiency and the correlation of thresholds obtained with the different test methods and, secondly, testing the diagnostic value of automated audiometry using the SRO technique. The incidence of an ototoxicity-induced hearing loss was described by determining the time interval …
