Sensorineural Hearing Loss following Carbon Monoxide Poisoning

الملخص EN

A case study is presented of a 17-year-old male who sustained an anoxic brain injury and sensorineural hearing loss secondary to carbon monoxide poisoning.

Audiological data is presented showing a slightly asymmetrical hearing loss of sensorineural origin and mild-to-severe degree for both ears.

Word recognition performance was fair to poor bilaterally for speech presented at normal conversational levels in quiet.

Management considerations of the hearing loss are discussed.
