Netilmicin treatment followed by monitoring of vestibular and auditory function using highly sensitive methods. 1980

S Vesterhauge, and N J Johnsen, and J Thomsen, and J Svare

Auditory and vestibular function was monitored in 30 patients treated with netilmicin for urinary tract infection. During and after the treatment, no signs or symptoms appeared that could be ascribed to an ototoxic effect of the drug. Routine acoustico-vestibular tests as well as advanced, objective acoustic tests revealed no signs of impairment of the labyrinth function. Results of highly sensitive vestibular tests in 15 patients including computerized analysis of the nystagmus responses to caloric tests were compared with results obtained from a sample of normal individuals. Some of the results varied significantly more in the netilmicin group than in the reference group. The most characteristic variation was a decreased reaction to hot water stimulation.

D008875 Middle Aged An adult aged 45 - 64 years. Middle Age
D009428 Netilmicin Semisynthetic 1-N-ethyl derivative of SISOMYCIN, an aminoglycoside antibiotic with action similar to gentamicin, but less ear and kidney toxicity. Certomycin,Netillin,Netilmicin Sulfate,Netrocin,Netromicina,Netromycin,Netromycine,Nétromicine,Sch-20569,Sch 20569,Sch20569
D002150 Caloric Tests Elicitation of a rotatory nystagmus by stimulating the semicircular canals with water or air which is above or below body temperature. In warm caloric stimulation a rotatory nystagmus is developed toward the side of the stimulated ear; in cold, away from the stimulated side. Absence of nystagmus indicates the labyrinth is not functioning. Barany Test,Barany's Test,Baranys Test,Caloric Test,Test, Barany,Test, Barany's,Test, Caloric,Tests, Caloric
