CME Credits: 1.00

Released: 2022-01-27

Sudden sensorineural hearing loss (SSNHL) is an emergency otologic condition with unknown pathophysiology that is mainly idiopathic. However, a viral cause was reported in temporal bone studies. Several reports have suggested that there is an increased risk of SSNHL after COVID-19. We aimed to compare the incidence of SSNHL during the COVID-19 pandemic with the incidence during 2018 and 2019 and to assess the association of lockdowns with incidence of SSNHL.
