REZUMAT

Sindromul alcool fetal (SAF) (1-2/1.000 nou-născuţi viabili), consecinţă a ingestiei precoce de alcool în timpul gravidităţii, asociază: deficienţa persistentă a creşterii taliei, greutăţii şi circumferinţei craniene, anomalii faciale caracteristice, malformaţii cardiace (predomină defectele septale), anomalii minore ale articulaţiilor şi extremităţilor, deficienţe ale dezvoltării şi funcţiei sistemului nervos central. Complexitatea, gravitatea şi frecvenţa modificărilor este variabilă în funcţie de consumul de alcool asociat sau nu altor riscuri: status socioeconomic scăzut, perturbări psihologice, fumat, droguri. Afectarea auzului sub efectul alcoolului, neinclusă clasic în sindromul alcool fetal precum şi infecţiile cronice ale urechii se asociază cu grade variabile de severitate. Examinările de specialitate aplicate sistematic la copiii cu SAF mai mult sau mai puţin sever au dus la conturarea a patru tipuri principale de perturbări ale auzului: întârzierea dezvoltării funcţiei auditive asociată cu perturbări ale vorbirii, pierderea neuro-senzorială a auzului (afectarea urechii medii şi a căilor auditive), pierderi intermitente ale funcţiei de conducere a vibraţiilor sunetului, pierderea auzului prin leziuni centrale. Identificarea precoce a anomaliilor de auz, de origine conductivă sau neuro-senzorială, contribuie la ameliorarea prognosticului prin intervenţii recuperatorii precoce.

ABSTRACT

Fetal alcohol syndrome (FAS) (1-2/1000 newborns), resulting from maternal consumption of alcohol early in the pregnancy, consists in: persistent growth failure, low weight, microcephaly, characteristic facial features, congenital heart diseases (especially septal defects), minor anomalies of joints and limbs, disorders of central nervous system development and function. The complexity, severity and frequency of the anomalies depends on the amount of the ingested alcohol associated or not with other risk factors: low socio-economic level, psychologic disturbances, smoking, drugs. Hearing disorders determined by maternal alcohol consumption, although not classically included in the FAS, and also chronic ear infections, are associated in variable severity degrees. Audiologic procedures performed in FAS children revealed four main hearing disorders: delayed development of auditory function associated with language disorders, sensorineural hearing loss (disorders of middle ear and conductive system), intermittent loss of sound vibrations conduction, hearing loss by central auditory nervous system deficits. Early detection of hearing anomalies alleviates the prognosis by early interventions.

Keywords: alcohol, pregnancy, hearing loss.
