Abstract:
OBJECTIVE To investigate the awareness rate of diabetic otology diseases and evaluate hearing in patients with diabetes under community management,analyze the characteristics of hearing loss in patients with diabetes,and provide scientific basis for incorporating hearing care into community diabetes management.METHODS From 2018 to 2020,719 patients(1438 ears)with diabetes in a community in Beijing were investigated by questionnaire,medical history collection,specialist physical examination and audiology examination.The results were analyzed statistically.RESULTS 1.The awareness rate of hearing loss was 32.5%(234/719)in patients with diabetes,94.7%(1 362/1 438)reported hearing loss after pure tone hearing examination.Of the 954 ears that reported normal hearing,92.8%(885/954)were found to have varying degrees of hearing loss.2.In the young and middle-aged group(438 ears),89.7%(393/438)had hearing loss,and 80.6%(353/438)had high-frequency hearing loss.Of the 334 ears with normal hearing,88.0%(294/334)had some degree of hearing loss.3.Hearing loss was more severe in patients with diabetes with a disease duration≥10 years than patients with a disease duration<10 years(P<0.05).The degree of hearing loss was more severe in patients with diabetes with hypertension and/or hyperlipidemia(P<0.05).CONCLUSION The self-examination rate of hearing loss in patients with diabetes is low and the incidence is high,especially in young and middle-aged patients.The course and comorbidities of diabetes are risk factors for the development of hearing loss,which should be paid attention to by both doctors and patients.
