Kim AS, Morales EEG, Amjad H, et al. - Among community-dwelling patients from a tertiary memory care center, the relationship between hearing loss and neuropsychiatric symptoms (NPS) was evaluated. Researchers designed a cross-sectional study to include patients from the Johns Hopkins Memory and Alzheimer's Treatment Center who had undergone audiometric testing during routine clinical practice between October 2014 and January 2017. The results of this study reveal that, as the severity of hearing loss increased, so did the number of NPS, the severity of NPS, and the severity of depressive symptoms; use of a hearing aid was associated with fewer NPS, lower severity, and less severe depressive symptoms. Among patients at a memory clinic, an encouraging, low-risk, non-pharmacological intervention for preventing and treating NPS could be identifying and addressing hearing loss.
