“…In our cohort, the number of comorbidities was too diffuse to perform any statistical analyses to determine trends on the type of comorbidity for each of the groups with vestibular loss. However, in the list of recorded comorbidities, several are associated with gross motor delay, such as OME, congenital heart defects, and neurologic disorders such as cerebral palsy (Casselbrant, Villardo, & Mandel, 2008;Cohen, Mandel, Furman, Sparto, & Casselbrant, 2011;Jones, Morgan, Shelton, & Thorogood, 2007), which suggests that, when using gross motor function to predict vestibular loss, comorbidities should be considered.…”
