Hearing Impairments
Hearing impairments are relatively rare in CP. Sensorineural hearing loss is most commonly associated with congenital TORCH (toxoplasmosis, rubella, cytomegalovirus, and herpes) infections, bacterial meningitis, and ototoxic drugs. In the past, kernicterus was a relatively common cause of sensorineural deafness in athetoid CP.
