Hearing

Objective: This work intends to find hearing loss or audiometric shifts in a group of telemarketing operators.

An uncommon cause of otalgia is geniculate neuralgia. In its most typical form it is characterized by severe paroxysmal neuralgic pain centered directly in the ear. The pain may be of a gradual onset and of a dull, persistent nature, with occasional sharp, stabbing pain. When the pain becomes intractable, an operation to surgically excise […]

Objective/Hypothesis: This study aims to analyze which division of vestibular nerve in the internal auditory canal is responsible for inducing vertigo in patients with herpes zoster oticus (HZO). Methods: Eight patients (three men and five women) suffered from auricular vesicles, otalgia, and facial palsy, and five of them accompanied by vertigo. Each patient received a […]

Das RetroX Hörsystem (CE-Kennzeichnung in 2000, FDA-Zulassung in 2002) ist ein teilimplantierbares Luftleitungshörsystem für eine ohroffene Hörver-sorgung (1). Mit diesem Hörsystem können alle Außenohreffekte wie die Gehörgangsresonanz und die Richtungseffekte erhalten werden. Eine Okklusion des Ohres wird vermieden. Das Hörsystem ist besonders geeignet für die Behandlung eines Patienten mit einer Hochtonschwerhörigkeit. Der Schlüssel für die […]

The goal of this assay is to establish if sound intensity is too high in the practice of odontology and if a group of dentists know and protect themselves from noise induced hearing loss.

Microthrombotic vascular lesions could be the primary or secondary cause but, however, in most of the cases are at the base of the lesions of tinnitus. On those bases we consider that a therapy with enoxaparine has a wide field of action. Two hundred cases of patients, who had suffered from tinnitus for at least […]

The AIM of this investigation is to evaluate the effect of Betaserc – 16 and 8 mg on the patients (workers in the system of transport), with vascular auditory and vestibular disturbances.

Science is not only a side activity for a physician in the field of neurootology diagnosing and treating patients suffering from vertigo, nausea, tinnitus, hearing loss etc.. In every case he has to realize an idea about the disease and the neurosensorial failures in the background of the disorders. Physical measurements, mathematical models of evaluation […]

The etiology of tinnitus combines hereditary and environmental factors. To help develop optimal therapies for tinnitus, it is necessary to characterize the genetic contributors to the pathophysiology and to design treatments at the level of the gene. Inner ear gene therapy involves delivery of genes into the vestibular or auditory portions of the inner ear […]

This work intends to find hearing loss or audiometric shifts in a group of elementary students and intensity of noise to which these students are exposed.
