ABSTRACT
Ototoxicity monitoring is particularly critical in patients receiving platinum-based chemotherapy or long-term aminoglycoside antibiotic administration. Furthermore, as new otoprotective agents are developed, audiologists need to not only be able to monitor for ototoxicity but know the various criteria for early detection of ototoxicity and how to grade ototoxic adverse events. The three primary methods for ototoxicity monitoring are conventional audiometry, high-frequency audiometry, and otoacoustic emissions. However, early detection and adverse event criteria depend primarily on conventional and high-frequency audiometry. No consensus exists on determining significant changes in otoacoustic emissions secondary to ototoxic drugs. Also, no consensus exists on how to monitor for tinnitus, although it is a common complication in these patients. Currently, tinnitus surveys can be helpful. A baseline evaluation is critical for accurate interpretation of auditory threshold results. Thus, a team approach is needed to ensure adequate care of these children. For clinical trials and in reading the literature, audiologists need to be aware of the American Speech Language Hearing Association's 1994 criteria for detection of ototoxic change, and the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events, Brock, and the Change scales for classification of adverse events. These methods and scales are reviewed and discussed.
