Diagnostic tests for Deafness:

Various tests are used in the diagnosis of Deafness. Some of these are listed below :

  • Physical examination
    • In a child, note any malformation of the skull, ears or face that may indicate a congenital syndrome associated with deafness
    • Pain with moving ear lobe suggests otitis externa
    • Examine in the ear with otoscope for any abnormalities such as excessive ear wax, foreign body, otitis media (middle ear infection), otitis externa (outer ear infection), cholesteatoma (a tumor in the middle ear) or ruptured ear drum
  • Ear discharge swab for microscopy and culture
  • Rinne hearing test with a tuning fork - will help determine if deafness is due to nerve problem or conduction (middle ear) problem.
  • Weber hearing test with a tuning fork - will help determine which ear is affected by deafness and further assist in determining if deafness is due to a nerve problem or conduction (middle ear) problem.

Diagnosis Checklist: Questions your doctor may ask (and why!)

During a consultation, your doctor will use various techniques in their assessment of Deafness. Your doctor may ask several questions when assessing your condition. It is important to remember that your consultation is a two-way process and any extra information you can share with your doctor about your symptoms may help them with their diagnosis. Some of the questions your doctor may ask are listed below:

  • How long have you had a problem with deafness? - to determine if acute or chronic.
  • Has the deafness been present since birth? - congenital deafness may be due to inherited defects e.g. external auditory canal atresia; to factors before the birth such as maternal intrauterine infection (e.g. rubella, CMV, toxoplasma and syphilis), drug or excess alcohol ingestion during pregnancy; or due to factors around the birth such as prematurity, lack of oxygen due to birth trauma and hemolytic disease of the newborn. Deafness may be associated with hypothyroidism, Down syndrome, Waardenburg's syndrome, Klippel-Feil syndrome, Treacher Collins' syndrome and mucopolysaccharidoses. In many cases of congenital deafness no cause can be found.
  • Is the deafness unilateral or bilateral? - If unilateral, the deafness may be due to local conditions such as ear wax, a foreign body, otitis media (middle ear infection) or ruptured ear drum; or it may be due to nervous system conditions such as Meniere's disease, acoustic neuroma or multiple sclerosis. Bilateral deafness is more likely due to otosclerosis, acoustic trauma, presbyacusis (hearing loss as part of the aging process) or drug toxicity.
  • Was there an event that preceded the deafness? - e.g. the often sudden onset of hearing loss in an ear following swimming or showering is suggestive of wax which swells to block the ear canal completely.
  • Is the deafness getting progressively worse with time?
  • more questions...»

Diagnosis Checklist: Associated symptoms your doctor may ask about (and why!)

Sometimes, other symptoms may be present and may help your doctor analyse your condition. The symptoms your doctor may ask about (in association with Deafness) may include:

  • Vertigo (sensation of your head or surroundings spinning)? - may suggest Meniere's disease or other nervous system condition such as acoustic neuroma, multiple sclerosis, basilar artery insufficiency, drug induced ototoxicity or syphilis; may also occur in otosclerosis.
  • Ear pain? - may suggest otitis media, mastoiditis, otitis externa.
  • Ear discharge? - may suggest otitis externa, otitis media, mastoiditis, barotraumas, cholesteatoma.
  • Tinnitus (noises in the ear, either ringing, whistling or booming etc.)? - e.g. presbyacusis, noise induced hearing loss, otosclerosis, ear wax, head injury, Meniere's disease, acute otitis media, drug induced ototoxicity.
  • Fever? - may suggest otitis media, otitis externa, mastoiditis, mumps, measles.
