The valueof routine screening for improving patient outcomes has not been evaluatedin a randomized clinical trial. Screening is endorsed by most professionalorganizations, including the US Preventive Services Task Force. While mosthearing loss in older adults is sensorineural and due to presbycusis, cerumenimpaction and chronic otitis media may be present in up to 30% of elderlypatients with hearing loss and can be treated by the primary care clinician.In randomized trials, hearing aids have been demonstrated to improve outcomesfor patients with sensorineural hearing loss. Nonadherence to use of hearingaids is high. Prompt recognition of potentially reversible causes of hearingloss, such as sudden sensorineural hearing loss, is important to maximizethe possibility of functional recovery.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>While untested in a clinical trial, older adults can be screened forhearing loss using simple methods, and effective treatments exist and areavailable for many forms of hearing loss.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1001\/jama.289.15.1976","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2003,4,15]],"date-time":"2003-04-15T19:21:07Z","timestamp":1050434467000},"page":"1976","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":336,"title":["Screening and Management of Adult Hearing Loss in Primary Care"],"prefix":"10.1001","volume":"289","author":[{"given":"Bevan","family":"Yueh","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Nina","family":"Shapiro","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Catherine H.","family":"MacLean","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Paul G.","family":"Shekelle","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"10","reference":[{"key":"ref-jsr20022-1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"879","DOI":"10.1093\/oxfordjournals.aje.a009713","article-title":"Prevalence of hearing loss in older adults in Beaver Dam, Wisconsin:the Epidemiology of Hearing Loss Study.","volume":"148","author":"Cruickshanks","year":"1998","journal-title":"Am J Epidemiol"},{"key":"ref-jsr20022-3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"247","DOI":"10.1097\/00003446-199008000-00001","article-title":"Hearing in the elderly: the Framingham cohort, 1983-1985;
