Abstract:
Objective To study the change of audiological characteristics of neonate with severe hyperbilirubi‐nemia need to be exchanged transfusion ,and to explore the correlation between the peak concentrations of serum to‐tal bilirubin and hearing loss .Methods A total of 130 cases of neonate diagnosed with severe hyperbilirubinemia need to be exchanged transfusion were included in this study .Hearing tests of auditory brainstem response (ABR) , distortion product otoacoustic emission (DPOAE) and acoustic immittance were administered to these neonates and they were followed up three months old .They were divided into the normal group ,the mild - moderate group and the severe - extreme group according to the hearing tests results of three months .The peak concentrations of ser‐um total bilirubin and hearing condition among the three groups were analyzed .Results There were 85 neonates with normal hearing (65 .38% ,85/130) ,45 with hearing loss (33 .85% ,45/130 .For 88 ears ,there were 2 cases of single ear and 43 cases of both ears) ,including 11 cases of mild - moderate group (22 ears ,24 .44% ,11/45) and 34 cases with severe - extreme group (66 ears ,75 .56% ,34/45) .There were 16 neonates (32 ears) met the crite‐rion of auditory neuropathy (12 .31% ,16/130) .The difference of the peak concentrations of serum total bilirubin a‐mong the three groups was statistically significant (F=16 .525 ,P=16 .525) .And positive correlation was observed between ABR threshold and peak serum total bilirubin concentration (r=0 .584 ,P<0 .001) .Conclusion The ma‐jor feature of the neonate with severe hyperbilirubinemia need to be exchanged transfusion was extremely severe sen‐sorineural hearing loss in both ears ;and the higher probability of serious hearing loss with the higher peak concen‐trations of serum total bilirubin .
