Tympanogram
Tympanogram
A typical tympanogram plots compliance
 If the eardrum is under no positive or
negative pressure, it will have it's
maximum compliance at 0.
 On the other hand, if it is under negative or
positive pressure, the peak will move to
the left or right.

Tympanogram

On the test below, the left ear is flat. This
indicates that the left ear drum is
abnormally stiff
Prevalence
The prevalence of congenital deafness in
the United States is estimated to be
approximately 1:1,000 or 0.1%
 Approximately 3:1,000 well babies have
hearing loss of varying degrees
 Approximately 6:1,000 combined well and
at-risk babies have some degree of
hearing loss (HL).

Hearing test
Deafness
Acquired deafness associated with age or
noise exposure is more common than
genetic deafness by roughly two orders of
magnitude
 Autosomal recessive inheritance is the
most common form, accounting for more
than 75% of all congenital deafness

SNHL



A sensorineural HL (SNHL) affects the inner ear
(cochlea) or auditory nerve (eighth cranial
nerve).
Most SNHLs are sensory and restricted to the
cochlea and do not result from an abnormality to
the auditory nerve.
Routine audiometric testing does not
differentiate between a sensory loss and a
neural loss.
SNHL
SNHL
Electrophysiologic measures (brainstem
auditory evoked response [BAER] and
otoacoustic emissions [OAE]) must be
used to differentiate between sensory and
neural causes.
 SNHL cannot be identified on routine
physical otoscopic examination.

Mixed HL

Abnormalities are identified in the outer or
middle ear as well as the inner ear



Hearing may be impaired (30%).
A classical clinical finding is Synkinesis (20%) or
mirror movements.
Scoliosis (60%) is common and may have a
significant kyphotic element.
Sprengel's deformity or congenital elevation of
the scapula may be seen in about 30%.

Pendred syndrome

Pendred syndrome is a
genetic disorder that
causes early hearing loss
in children. It also can
affect the thyroid gland
and sometimes may
affect a person's balance.
The syndrome is named
after Vaughan Pendred,
the physician who first
described individuals with
the disorder

 Glomerulonephritis
 Hearing loss before age 30
 Nephritis

Otosclerosis
Otosclerosis is a disease of the
bones of the inner ear.
 These are labeled the malleus,
incus and stapes (2-4) in figure 1,
and are also known in aggregate
as the "ossicles".
 The ossicles become knit together
into an immovable mass, and do
not transmit sound as well as
when they are more flexible.
Otosclerosis can also affect the other
ossicles (malleus and incus) and
the otic capsule -- the bone that
surrounds the inner ear.
