TI  - Could neonatal hypernatremia dehydration influence hearing status?
PG  - 13-8
AB  - INTRODUCTION: Neonatal hypernatremia dehydration (NHD) is a dangerous condition 
      in neonates, which is accompanied by acute complications (renal failure, cerebral 
      edema, and cerebral hemorrhage) and chronic complications (developmental delay). 
      Children begin learning language from birth, and hearing impairment interferes 
      with this process. We assessed the hearing status of infants with hypernatremia 
      dehydration. MATERIALS AND METHODS: In a case-control study in 110 infants 
      presenting at the Ghaem Hospital (Mashhad, Iran) between 2007 and 2011, we 
      examined the incidence of hearing impairment in infants suffering from 
      hypernatremia dehydration (serum sodium >150 mEq/L) in comparison with infants 
      with normal sodium level (serum sodium </=150 mEq/L). RESULTS: Three of 110 cases 
      examined in the study group showed a transient hearing impairment. A mean serum 
      sodium level of 173mg/dl was reported among hearing-impaired infants. CONCLUSION: 
      Transient hearing impairment was higher in infants with hypernatremia; although 
      this difference was not significant (P>0.05). Hearing impairment was observed in 
      cases of severe hypernatremia.
