In order to determine the effect of dialysis on hearing acuity, 20 patients on chronic maintenance hemodialysis or peritoneal were followed with hearing examinations every 6 months over a follow-up period of 1-4 years. While 70% of the study group had some measureable hearing loss at the beginning of the study, 75% of the patients showed no deterioration of hearing loss during the follow-up period. It is suggested that hearing deficits in chronic renal failure are common and multifactorial in etiology, and that most patients undergoing chronic dialysis show no further deterioration in hearing acuity.
