With the holidays approaching, people will soon gather with friends, family, co-workers & even strangers in festivities large & small. There will be music & singing, laughter & conversation, glasses clinking & bells ringing. But not everyone will be able to hear these sounds. 🗣️ 🎄 🎶 🥂

Not being able to fully hear or feeling dizzy can make daily activities challenging. 60 - 90% of #cancer patients develop #ototoxicity from cisplatin-based chemotherapy. Audiological monitoring is an essential component of #oncology care.

Cisplatin is a cornerstone #chemotherapy but comes w/ a high risk of #ototoxicity. Children are more susceptible to the permanent hearing loss, but it impacts QoL for all patients -including #AYA.

Audiologists monitor for early signs & educate patients & HCPs on #hearing health.

Platinum-based drugs, including cisplatin, are effective treatments for #cancer, but they may cause permanent hearing damage known as #ototoxicity.

To minimize the risk of long-term effects, auditory monitoring & assessments can help improve patient outcomes.

Not all side effects of cancer treatment can be seen.
Cisplatin-induced #ototoxicity often remains after treatment ends.

During #InvisibleDisabilitiesWeek, we raise our voice to help ensure beating cancer doesn’t come at the cost of hearing.

#DYK When soundwaves travel through the inner ear, they stimulate sensory hair cells, triggering the nervous system to communicate with the brain.

Platinum-based treatments like cisplatin can cause #ototoxicity by damaging these cells & may result in irreversible #hearing loss.

Tinnitus is a common condition described as a ringing sound, but some people experience it as roaring or buzzing.

While #tinnitus is often the first sign of hearing loss, some medications – including cisplatin-based #chemotherapy – can cause #ototoxicity.

Collaborative efforts between oncologists, audiologists, and researchers are vital to preventing #ototoxicity during cisplatin-based chemotherapy treatment.

By prioritizing hearing health, we can help prevent CIO to improve patient activities of daily living.

Survivors of childhood cancers face challenges resulting from therapies with toxic effects, like cisplatin-based chemotherapy.

Cancer treatments in the formative years can damage organs, affect learning, & require lifelong support.

60-90% of patients treated with cisplatin may experience some form of hearing loss—a side effect known as #ototoxicity.

While cisplatin is a powerful cancer treatment, its impact on hearing can be life-altering.
