Abstract Purpose SARS-CoV-2, the responsible virus for covid-19 pandemic, has demonstrated neurotropic properties indicated by cases presenting with auditory and vestibular system insults. The expression of ACE-2 receptors in placenta detection IgM antibodies against fetuses pregnant women suffering from render vertical transmission infection to fetus possible. Thus, our study aims examine whether, similar other viruses like CMV, SARS-CoV-2 is congenital hearing loss. Methods This a retrospective regional pediatric hospital. medical records newborns (n = 111) born mothers positive COVID-19 during pregnancy who underwent screening tests Transient Evoked Otoacoustic Emissions (TEOAE) Automatic Auditory Brainstem Response (AABR) February 2020 June 2022 were reviewed. Neonates additional aggravating factors loss excluded study. Results For period, nine found first trimester, twenty second eighty-three third trimester. TEOAEs test AABR scored PASS bilaterally all neonates tested. Conclusions Infection was not risk factor loss, studies.

The course of COVID-19 infection may be complicated by a variety neurological manifestations. Since the inner ear is vulnerable to viruses, sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) has been reported occur following SARS-CoV-2 infection, often resulting in long-term morbidity and worsening quality life. interest how virus affects gradually increased since pandemic’s spread, but little still known about SNHL potentially caused SARS-CoV-2. aim this paper evaluate possible association between through systematic literature review. Currently available data suggest that hamper cochlear function; however, reports are limited. Large cohort prospective studies necessary effects viral ear.

Aim: It is a scientific fact that certain viral infections during pregnancy cause hearing loss in newborns. The aim of this study was to investigate whether such are the congenital loss. This based on an examination screening newborns born pregnant women affected by current pandemic caused SARS-CoV-2 virus, which responsible for disease designated Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19). Materials and Methods: In retrospective case-control study, demographic data ABR test results total 81 were compared with those 101 healthy controls. mothers who tested positive polymerase chain reaction (PCR) between March September 2022. controls had no problems pregnancy. Results: prevalence PCR positivity 3.5%. A higher cesarean delivery rate observed group infection (p=0.028). failure initial both groups (22/81 vs. 25/101; p=0.712).

Background: Prenatal maternal coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) infection may worsen the clinical course of and increase risk for adverse obstetric neonatal outcomes depending on severity timing exposure. Data regarding long-term impact offspring exposed to prenatal COVID-19 are still limited. Objective: To study association between infectious diseases, respiratory complications, developmental delay up age 1 year. Study design: A retrospective cohort was conducted. The included 19,050 women-offspring dyads who delivered at Soroka University Medical Center December 30, 2020, July 2022, them, 2663 (14%) women were diagnosed with during pregnancy. Pregnancy, delivery complications compared pregnancy not. Multivariable logistic regression models performed examine selected diagnoses, while adjusting background characteristics, among offspring, compare incidence diagnoses based trimester infection. Results: Offspring mothers infections higher viral [adjusted odds ratio (OR) = 1.167; 95% CI 1.028–1.325, P 0.017], specifically third trimester. lower in cases where second These increased COVID-19; however, only if infected earlier No associations observed (0.8% vs. 1.1%, OR 0.724, 0.46–1.14, 0.161) or (3.3% 4%, 0.83, 0.662–1.041, 0.107).

Gestational SARS-CoV-2 infection can impact maternal and neonatal health. The virus has also been reported to cause newborn sensorineural hearing loss, but its consequences for the auditory system are not fully understood.The aim of this study was evaluate during pregnancy on newborn' function first year life.An observational conducted from 1 November 2020 30 2021 at University Modena Hospital. All newborns whose mother had infected by were enrolled underwent audiological evaluation birth age.A total 119 neonates born mothers pregnancy. At birth, five (4.2%) presented an increased threshold ABR (Auditory Brainstem Evoked Response), results confirmed only in 1.6% cases, when repeated month later, while thresholds all other children returned normal limits. 1-year follow-up, no cases moderate or severe loss observed, concomitant disorders middle ear frequently observed.Maternal infection, regardless trimester which it contracted, appears induce infants. It is important clarify possible effect late-onset future research needed.
