Prognosis of Audiologic Recovery From Sudden Sensorineural Hearing Loss Following Corticosteroid Intervention: A Retrospective Chart Review Across Multiple Outcome Measures

These findings reinforce the benefit of prompt steroid intervention, while further highlighting a need for standardized measures of audiometric outcomes.
