 Hyperbilirubinemia in infants is the major leading cause of neonatal
intensive care unit (NICU) treatment and is known to be an important
risk factor for neonatal hearing loss.
 Up to 80% of preterm infants in NICU have a hyperbilirubinemia, which
often present as jaundice due to bilirubin deposition.
 Bilirubin has been reported to damage cochlear nuclei and
accumulation bilirubin in the auditory pathway, the mechanism of
bilirubin-induced hearing loss has not been clearly establish.
INTRODUCTION
The purpose of this study is :
 to evaluate the effect of hyperbilirubinemia on hearing threshold and
auditory pathway in preterm infants by serial ABR.
 To evaluated the usefulness of the UCB concentration as compared
with TSB in predicting bilirubin-induced hearing loss in preterm infants.
All preterm infants, under 37 weeks gestational age, who
were admitted to the NICU of the Severance Hospital for
the treatment of hyperbilirubinemia from January 2013
to December 2017 were eligible for the study.
Exclusion criteria included chromosomal abnormalities,
TORCH (toxoplasmosis, rubella, cytomegalovirus and
herpes simplex) infections, and cases where baseline
testing could not be completed.
So, the selected study population were 70 infants.
Patients
All NICU children participate a two-stage AABR
examination. The result of AABR was assumes an infant
as passing the test when both ears were reacted to 35
dB nHL click sound stimulus.
When the first test failed to pass, a retest was performed
at intervals of 1 day or more. Infants who did not pass
the AABR examination were referred to department of
ENT for diagnostic ABR, considered as decision tools of
hearing loss.
The result of ABR was defined abnormal when the
infants hearing threshold exceed more than 40 dB nHL
in at least one ear. Those infants with hearing threshold
40 dB nHL at diagnostic ABR examination, performed
follow-up ABR within 3 to 6 months.
Auditory brain respons
Bilirubin concentration was examined in the first 5
postnatal days or when clinically indicated.
The UCB concentration was calculated by subtracting the
direct bilirubin from the TSB concentration.
Bilirubin measurement
statistical analysis
All statistical analyses were performed using SPSS ver. 12.0
(SPSS Inc., Chicago, IL, USA).
The difference in parameters between two groups was
tested using independent t-test. Spearman correlation
analysis was used to identify linear associations between
two variables.
The sensitivity and specificity of bilirubin level as predictors
of hearing loss were evaluated using receiver operating
characteristic (ROC) curves. All data are presented as means
and standard deviations. A P-value <0.05 was considered to
reflect statistically significance

PRINCIPLES OF HEARING LOSS PREVENTION
In this study, we found that UCB concentration
were significantly increased in infants with
abnormal findings in diagnostic ABR (40 dB
nHL) than in TSB concentration. In addition,
direct correlation was found between the UCB
concentration and the hearing threshold
confirmed by ABR. Moreover, a significant
relationship was founded between UCB level and
hearing loss, which defined threshold 40 nHL in
diagnostic ABR. In ROC curves, UCB level above
13 mg/dL provide best sensitivity and specificity
These results of our study and several others suggest
that UCB in preterm infants related with
hyperbilirubinemia is a better predictor of bilirubin-
induced hearing loss as indicated by diagnostic ABR
This retrospective study showed hearing results of the preterm infants of
hyperbilirubinemia by serial ARB and relationship between hearing status and
UCB compared with TSB.
Bilirubin is a kind of neurotoxic substance that changes in energy metabolism, alteration in membrane
function, decreased membrane potential, alteration in enzyme function, and inhibition of protein and
DNA synthesis.
Bilirubin has been reported damage to cochlear nuclei and auditory pathway through cochlear
nerve, and the cochlear itself is often normal. Thus, hyperbilirubinemia often causes ANSD, which
defined by abnormal ABR finding in the presence of normal optoacoustic emissions (OAE).
ABR is most commonly used modality to investigate bilirubin-induced neuronal damage in neonates
and preterm infants, which as a direct, noninvasive assessment.
Hearing loss caused by hyperbilirubinemia is found to be reversible but follow-up ABR test can also
show permanent hearing loss, therefore it is necessary to accurately diagnose the bilirubin-
induced hearing loss by sequential ABR test.
This is the first study to report on evaluation of
relationship between hearing status and bilirubin
concentration through the AABR, diagnostic ABR
to follow up ABR.
Our study demonstrates that UCB concentration is
a better predictor of bilirubin-induced hearing loss
than TSB in preterm infants as evaluated by serial
ABR.
Serial ABR testing can be a useful, noninvasive
methods to evaluate early reversible bilirubin-
induced hearing loss in preterm infants.
THANK YOU!
