title: [Pharmacopuncture in combined treatment of children with neurosensory hypoacusis].
abstract: Pharmacopuncture treatment (cerebrolysin, cavinton, prozerin) was given to 120 children with neurosensory hypoacusis aged 4-15 years. The treatment consisted of 3 courses 10 days each with 7-10-day interval. The drugs were injected in the dose 0.1 ml in biologically active points according to the original technique. The treatment lowered tonal thresholds more than by 15 dB in 36% children. Speech intelligibility increased, head ache and nose in the ears relieved in 85% cases. Adaptation to the hearing aid was positive. Clinical evidence was confirmed by REG picture indicating normalization of hemodynamics. Pharmacopuncture is a promising method in the treatment of children with neurosensory hypoacusis.
