Otoacoustic Emissions for Monitoring Aminoglycoside-Induced Ototoxicity in Children With Cystic Fibrosis

Abstract: Otoacoustic emissions measurement (especially of DP OAEs) proved more sensitive than PTA in revealing minor cochlear dysfunction after gentamicin exposure. They should be used for monitoring patients receiving ototoxic factors such as aminoglycosides.

“…Under such assumptions, it is recommended to include otoacoustic emissions in the assessment protocol when the patient is unable to respond to the behavioral tests, having seen that many papers confirm its clinical application on the early detection of ototoxicity 8,9,14,21,22,[39][40][41][42][43][44][45][46][47][48]50 . It is worth stressing that, as aforementioned, since the frequency range assessed in TEEOE is carried out between 1 and 4kHz, DPEOAE should not be excluded, because TEEOE may be present even when there are alterations in the outer hair cells in the most basal portion of the spiral organ (base membrane vibration for those sounds in frequencies above 4kHz) 48 .…”

“…Because of this very property, this procedure has been used in hearing monitoring in order to check cochlear alterations caused by ototoxic drugs, by means of reducing the amplitude of emissions before alterations happen to the tonal thresholds 8,9,21,22,[39][40][41][42][43][44][45][46] . Moreover, this is an objective analysis (and not behavioral), that may be carried out even when the child is asleep.…”

“…Furthermore, DPOAEs are believed to be sensitive to subtle cochlear damage before it becomes apparent using pure-tone threshold testing (Mulheran & Degg 1997;Katbamna et al 1999;Stavroulaki et al 2002;Lapsley Miller & Marshall 2007;Helleman & Dreschler 2012). Finally, DPOAEs have the distinct advantages of being fast to obtain, nonbehavioral (capable of assessing cochlear function in inattentive patients, such as newborns or critically ill patients), and obtainable by nonspecialist staff with specific training in making emission measurements.…”

“…During ototoxicity monitoring, the patient should have OAE testing completed at baseline and before each administration of the ototoxic medication. A change of 2.4 dB was reported as a significant decrease [9], OAEs are a good clinical choice in monitoring for ototoxicity because they are quick. Because they can show a change in cochlear function before it appears on the audiogram, further testing can be avoided unless OAE testing suggests a need.…”
