nitrous oxide and Cochlear Hearing Loss

nitrous oxide has been researched along with Cochlear Hearing Loss in 8 studies

Nitrous Oxide: Nitrogen oxide (N2O). A colorless, odorless gas that is used as an anesthetic and analgesic. High concentrations cause a narcotic effect and may replace oxygen, causing death by asphyxia. It is also used as a food aerosol in the preparation of whipping cream.
dinitrogen oxide : A nitrogen oxide consisting of linear unsymmetrical molecules with formula N2O. While it is the most used gaseous anaesthetic in the world, its major commercial use, due to its solubility under pressure in vegetable fats combined with its non-toxicity in low concentrations, is as an aerosol spray propellant and aerating agent for canisters of 'whipped' cream.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"Sudden sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) after nonotologic surgery is unusual, with most occurrences reported in patients having cardiopulmonary bypass."2.61Sensorineural Deafness After Spine Surgery: Case Series and Literature Review. ( Chhabra, HS; Gupta, A; Mallepally, AR; Rustagi, T, 2019)
"Sudden sensorineural hearing loss is infrequent, with an estimated incidence of 5 to 20 cases yearly per 100,000 people."2.43Unilateral sensorineural hearing loss after spine surgery: Case report and review of the literature. ( La Marca, F; Park, P; Smythe, P; Telian, SA; Toung, JS, 2006)
"However, three patients who sustained sensorineural hearing loss due to labyrinthine membrane rupture following general anesthesia with nitrous oxide have come to the authors' attention."1.27Labyrinthine membrane rupture caused by elevated intratympanic pressure during general anesthesia. ( Man, A; Segal, S; Winerman, I, 1984)
