Association of Hypertension and Sensorineural Hearing Loss: A Cross-Sectional Study from a Rural Tertiary Care Setting

Background: Hypertension is a substantial health problem associated with several health disorders. In our lookup considering the age group of 45–65, with a significant male predominance, hypertension has been found to be a cause for hearing loss. We observed the upward jab of hearing threshold, part...

description Background: Hypertension is a substantial health problem associated with several health disorders. In our lookup considering the age group of 45–65, with a significant male predominance, hypertension has been found to be a cause for hearing loss. We observed the upward jab of hearing threshold, particularly at higher frequencies, increased risk with Grade 3 hypertension compared to grade 2 and grade 1 hypertension. Materials and Methods: Two hundred cases and 200 controls, each gender, aged 45–64, have been covered in the study after sample estimate. Blood pressure measurements have been used to verify hypertension, or no hypertension, primarily based on the results. Pure tone audiometry was performed at numerous frequencies ranging from 250 to 8000 Hz. to test hearing. Results: There is a connection between excessive blood pressure and an increase in the hearing threshold. Hearing loss in the lookup populace exhibits that hypertension is an accelerated component in hearing apparatus deterioration associated with age. Conclusion: In this study, the affiliation between accelerated hearing threshold and hypertension was discovered, offering heart specialists, urologists, audiologists, ENT specialists and different health specialists to collaborate on hypertension related changes.
