How to treat deafness? How to treat deafness

Drugs and surgery**: Drugs should be applied as soon as possible for acute otitis media, and drugs ** and tympanocentesis ** can be used for secretory otitis media, and at the same time, the organ lesions should be actively proximated to eliminate the predisposing factors that cause otitis media. For sensorineural deafness, drugs that dilate the microvessels of the inner ear and improve the microcirculation of the inner ear, nerve drugs, nutritional vitamin drugs and energy preparations should be used as soon as possible.

Chronic purulent otitis media is a common disease in otology, frequent diseases, seriously affecting the quality of life of patients, ear microsurgery ** chronic purulent otitis media can achieve very ideal results, the use of operating microscope, can clearly peek into many small important anatomical structures in the middle ear, the application of surgical electric drill and otology microscopic instruments under the microscope can completely remove the middle ear lesion tissue, according to the scope of the patient's lesions, the implementation of tympanic membrane repair and ossicular chain reconstruction.

Hearing aids: sudden deafness, otitis media and other conductive deafness, hereditary deafness, drug-toxic deafness and other sensorineural deafness caused by various ** drugs are not effective, and can be equipped with aspirators, and most moderate deafness can be compensated for hearing with hearing aids.

Cochlear implants: For severe and very severe sensorineural hearing loss, cochlear implants are currently the only effective way to reconstruct hearing.

Infant hearing impairment should be as early as possible**: For infants and young children, hearing impairment and hearing and language development are closely related, and early establishment of hearing is extremely beneficial to the language development and thinking development of infants and young children, so hearing impairment should be as early as possible**. Children with cochlear implants in infancy or early childhood begin to receive auditory information when their brains are most suited and begin to grasp language, and their auditory development is comparable to that of hearing children, and their verbal expression skills are naturally developed.

Disease analysis: Deafness is divided into two categories: conductive deafness and neural deafness. Neural hearing loss, hearing aids and cochlear implants** can be used.

For sudden deafness that has just occurred, drugs can be used**, including vasodilators, hormones, and neurotrophic drugs.

Sorry dear, it's impossible to say this level if it's you. Sometimes miracles happen in this situation, and it depends on your own condition to see if there is a possibility of recovery.

First find out the cause and nature of these things without understanding it is impossible to ** or intervene.

**The principle is early detection, early diagnosis, and early **, strive to restore or partially restore the lost hearing, try to preserve and use the residual hearing, carry out auditory language training in a timely manner, and appropriately use hearing aids or artificial hearing.

1. Emergency**.

Sudden hearing loss is a sudden-onset sensorineural hearing loss, abbreviated as violent or sudden hearing loss, usually within minutes, hours, or three days, and can be accompanied by tinnitus or vertigo. The patient may be given the following**:

1. Systemic drugs**, such as oral and injectable drugs such as antibiotics, glucocorticoids, neurotrophic drugs, vasodilators, etc.

2. Topical drugs**, such as ear drops, nasal drops, intra-ear injection drugs, etc.

3. Some diseases can be surged**, such as otitis media surgery, cochlear implant surgery, etc.

4. Oxygen therapy, such as oxygen inhalation and hyperbaric oxygen chamber.

5. Physics, such as microwave, ultra-short wave, etc.

6. Wear hearing aids. Generally, the doctor will take a comprehensive approach according to the condition**.

Deafness, medically known as hearing impairment. At present, there are more than 20 million people with simple hearing disabilities in China, and the incidence of congenital binaural deafness in newborns has reached the rate. Moreover, many patients are acquired deafness, with the increase of age, the proportion of patients with hearing impairment has increased significantly, people over 50 years old are 1 8, and the elderly over 65 years old are as high as 1 3, 70 years old and 70 years old have hearing impairment, which seriously affects the social interaction and quality of life of patients.

At present, the problem of hearing impairment has been solved technically, thanks to the invention of various auditory implants. In countries such as the United States, Australia and Austria, we have developed very good quality auditory implantable devices that can basically meet the requirements of all kinds of people with moderate to severe hearing impairment. The main ones are:

The electronic cochlear implant device, which can perfectly solve severe congenital and acquired cochlear deafness, has been carried out in 30,000 cases in China.

Especially for children aged 2 to 4 years and patients with post-verbal deafness, they can obtain completely normal hearing and speech functions, and get the same life as normal. At present, the cost of imported electronic cochlear implant is 290,000 to 110,000, if it is included in the reimbursement of major diseases or the scope of medical insurance or rural cooperative medical care, the economic burden of the patient's family will be greatly reduced, in the long run, a one-time investment, can solve the problem of hearing impairment brought by the later investment, such as for **, early deafness, after adulthood, there is no need to specifically invest in the subsistence allowance for deaf-mute patients, at present, China provides about 2,000 cases of free cochlear implant surgery for deaf-mute children. In recent years, domestic cochlear implants have also been put into the market, and the effect is also very satisfactory, **6 to 80,000 yuan.

For patients with residual hearing, patients who cannot meet the needs of wearing ordinary hearing aids can choose vibrating sound bridges, vibrating bone bridges, bone-anchored hearing aids, semi-implantable hearing aids, etc., which can obtain almost normal hearing, and the cost generally ranges from 120,000 to 50,000 yuan. In addition, for postcochlear deafness, auditory brainstem implantation (ABI) can be performed, and the chip can be implanted into the brainstem auditory center to enable patients to obtain hearing, which has been carried out in Hong Kong, China. These devices need to be surgically installed by a professional ottologist.

In short, relying on these hearing implant technologies, the problem of deafness is basically solved, but because such devices are developed abroad, it is very expensive, and if you get the help of ** or medical insurance, more hearing-impaired people can get these high-end hearing solutions.

If it is unscientific to use just one sentence to explain whether deafness can or cannot, the first thing to do is to clarify the diagnosis of deafness. Generally speaking, conductive deafness can be treated medically**. For mixed deafness, medical treatment and deafness can be used at the same time, but auditory means are long-term and lifelong.

For sensorineural deafness, it is necessary to analyze ** first, such as the early stage of sudden deafness, the late stage of drug-toxic deafness, and other ** sensorineural deafness, poor speech comprehension, and often feel that others speak slurred. It is difficult to hear high-frequency consonants such as C, S, X, Q, J, etc. Patients with neural deafness have revival.

They may not be able to hear a moderate intensity, but if the intensity increases a little more, they find it unbearable. This is the phenomenon of revitalization. Tinnitus is common, often preceding deafness.

Tinnitus is a high-pitched sound, often unilateral, sometimes both but only the heavier side is noticed. Delusions due to vestibular lesions in the inner ear cause vertigo. The best way to do this is to get the best possible hearing compensation through the selection of a suction aid.

Patients with hearing impairment are classified into 5 levels according to the degree of hearing loss: 26-40dBHL is mild deafness; 41-55dBHL is moderately deaf; 56-70dBHL is moderate to severe deafness; 71-90dBHL is severe deafness; >90dBHL is considered to be profoundly deaf.
