Causes of Neonatal Hearing Impairments I.Genetic II.Non-Genetic III.Unknown
22
I. Genetic Accounts for 30-50% May be autosomal dominant/recessive, x- linked or sporadic Can be syndromic or non syndromic
23
Syndromic Typically present with involvement of other organ systems May have specific characteristic manifestations Cause approximately 38.5% of hearing loss present at birth (Billings, 1999)

26
Non syndromic has isolated problem in the auditory system gross physical abnormality of the structure or covert hearing impairment estimated to represent more than half of the genetic cases may account for most of the cases with no known cause
27
II. Non Genetic estimated to cause 28.6 % of hearing impairment in children (Billings, 1999) classified into: –Prenatal - 5-10% of cases; classified as infectious (CMV, Herpes,etc) and non infectious (teratogens) –Perinatal - 5-15% of cases (LBW, low APGAR, etc) –Post natal - otitis media, ototoxic medications,(aminoglycosides), infections (meningitis, mumps).
28
III. Unknown Causes Causes 20-30%; 31%(Billings, 1999) Cases with no identifiable cause for hearing impairment Hypothesized to be a result of denovo mutations or unidentified risk factors
