Comparison of the effectiveness of monitoring Cisplatin-induced ototoxicity with extended high-frequency pure-tone audiometry or distortion-product otoacoustic emission.

Background And Objectives: To compare the effectiveness of monitoring cisplatin-induced ototoxicity in adult patients using extended high-frequency pure-tone audiometry (EHF-PTA) or distortion-product otoacoustic emission (DP-OAE) and to evaluate the concurrence of ototoxicity and nephrotoxicity in cisplatin-treated patients.

Subjects And Methods: EHF-PTA was measured at frequencies of 0.25, 0.

Objective: To determine the prognostic factors for the outcomes of treating acute subjective tinnitus with intratympanic dexamethasone (ITD).

Study Design: Retrospective chart review.

Setting: Tertiary referral center.
