episode 135: Hearing Loss in Kidney Disease:What You Didn't Know
Will the poor health of the kidneys damage Hearing? Yes, they can work in more ways than one. However, this side effect of chronic kidney disease is not talked about very often.
Sensorineural hearing loss in chronic kidney disease is common. Hearing loss often happens due to the illness itself and sometimes ototoxic drugs needed to treat kidney diseases. It happens from 27 to 77% of people suffering from chronic kidney diseases. The percentage varies between countries, depending on the burden of NCDs. Hearing loss is often long-lasting and worsens over time[1]. All CKD patients need regular hearing assessment to guard against this and treat accordingly. Timely intervention can prevent and protect Hearing.
