Abstract
Abstract: Hearing loss is a partial or total reduction in hearing ability, which can be congenital or acquired. Its prevalence increases with age, and is expected to rise due to demographic transition. Worldwide, 42% of adults over 60 have some form of hearing loss, with 32% in Colombia. In children, the prevalence is 1 to 3 cases per 1000 live births. Sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) has a multifactorial origin, including genetic factors, age, and exposure to ototoxic substances and chronic noise. This guide aims to provide evidence-based recommendations for diagnosing and treating SNHL, intended for otolaryngologists, audiologists, and other healthcare professionals. It focuses on early diagnosis, personalized treatment, and optimizing healthcare resources. The guide was developed through a review of various scientific sources and quality evidence evaluation to ensure effective recommendations for managing sensorineural hearing loss in adults and childrens.
