Response to oral steroids for sudden sensorineural hearing loss: considerations of age, time to treatment, and degree of hearing loss
OS therapy was associated with greater likelihood of full recovery in all patient age groups compared to those treated with IT steroid alone, in combination with OS, or for salvage. A significant difference in response was seen in those over 65 years raising consideration of age stratification in decision-making for steroid modality in treatment of ISSNHL.
