- Abstract
Hiperbilirubinemia is one of the high risk factor of hearing loss of infants. Hearing loss is present in 60 per cent children with high level of bilirubina in blood serum. The aim of the article is to see how the level of bilirubina, influence on hearing loss. The level of bilirubina in blood serum was marked in children after born and while next hospitalisation. Audiologic diagnosis and otolaryngological examination were done as well. Hiperbilirubinemia was the only one factor of high risk of hearing loss in this group. The analysis of 53 patients showed that separate high level of bilirubina does not influence on hearing loss in children.
