- Title
Aminoglycoside Ototoxicity and Its Prevention.
- Authors
Garinis, Angela
- Abstract
Aminoglycoside antibiotics have well-known adverse events, such as tinnitus, hearing, and balance issues. Monitoring for ototoxicity is not commonplace for patient populations receiving these therapies, partly due to gaps in evidence-based research supporting feasible and effective monitoring protocols. Emerging evidence has shown that susceptibility to ototoxicity may vary across patients based on certain patient and clinical characteristics. The presenter provided a discussion on the latest clinical research in this area, recommendations for establishing ototoxicity management protocols, and advancements in technology aiding in the early detection and prevention of ototoxicity.
