- W3138028668 abstract "Background According to the World Health Organization (WHO), hearing loss (HL) has a significant disease burden with a global prevalence as high a 5% with an expected exponential rise in the coming years. HL has medical, social, and psychological implications on one's health. A significant proportion of HL cases might be the result of preventable conditions, especially among the young. Aim To estimate the pattern of HL and its correlates among adolescent, adult, and elderly populations in the southern regions of Saudi Arabia. Methodology A retrospective observational study was carried out between May 2018 and April 2019 across four different ENT clinics located across Saudi Arabia. We included all patients who had a clinical diagnosis of conductive, sensorineural, or mixed HL with varying degrees of severity tested via Pure Tone Audiometer (PTA). Results We included 332 cases with HL, ages ranged from 14 to 62 years old with a mean age of 45.2 ±12.6 years. HL was bilateral in 72% of the cases and was associated with tinnitus in 43.1% of cases. Sensorineural HL was the predominant pattern of HL among the elderly and conductive pattern was more common among the young. Causes such as infections, congenital causes, and age-related damage were among the key causes of HL. Conclusion Our study showed that HL might be more prevalent among the Saudi population than previously reported. Sensorineural HL is most common among the elderly. However, conductive HL following ear infections is the main cause of HL among young. Therefore, there is a need for significant improvement in public health surrounding ear health to prevent reversible causes of HL, especially among the young." @default.
