Meningitis Related Hearing Loss In Children

Meningitis comes with many debilitating side-effects, one of which is hearing loss. In fact, it

is a leading cause of acquired deafness occurring in about 30 percent of its survivors. Children

are particularly susceptible to nerve deafness as the bacterial infection damages the tiny hairs in

the ears that carry sound signals. It can also cause fluid to build up in the middle ear, blocking

sound, but this condition is not permanent. Children should always have their hearing checked

within a month of recovering from bacterial meningitis or meningococcal septicemia. Hearing

loss may not be noticeable at first, especially in infants and small children. Although it may

fluctuate in the beginning, it will eventually stabilize.

Your ability to hear is as unique as your fingerprints. Childhood and adult illnesses and medical conditions, age, noisy environments, and heredity can combine to produce different types of hearing losses in different people. When you need help with your hearing, we hope you’ll turn to the services of a hearing aid specialist. Dedicated to providing quality hearing care, we’ll search for the solution and hearing instrument best suited to your hearing

abilities.

P.S. Children who suffer hearing loss after recovering from meningitis are usually good

candidates for cochlear implants.
