Long-term treatment outcomes in children with auditory neuropathy spectrum disorder (ANSD)
International Journal of Pediatric Otorhinolaryngology Feb 14, 2020
Ehrmann-Müller D, et al. - Researchers conducted this retrospective study to analyze long-term outcomes in the hearing and speech development of children with auditory neuropathy spectrum disorder (ANSD). They reviewed data from 10 children who were diagnosed and treated at the tertiary referral center. The hearing aids and/or cochlear implants were given to all children. The children’s hearing and speech development and their social and educational development have been assessed. There is currently a lack of information on the long-term outcomes of treatment in children with ANSD. Findings revealed that hearing and speech development in children with ANSD are significantly heterogeneous. Intensive and supportive rehabilitative methods can be used to facilitate regular school education and the social integration of children with ANSD.
