SUMMARY:Substance Use Disorders and the Vestibular System: A Rising Issue
DESCRIPTION:Presenter:\nAmanda Chiao\, AuD\, PhD \nCEUs: 0.1 AAA CEUs \nDuration: 60 minutes \nInstructional Level: Beginner \nProgram Focus: Knowledge\n\nDescription: \nThe oto-vestibulotoxic effects of certain prescribed medications have been well known for decades. These include aminoglycoside antibiotics\, loop diuretics\, platinum-based chemotherapeutics\, and some non-steroidal anti-inflammatories.  However\, case-reports and a few cohort studies suggest that substance misuse from illicit drugs\, opioids\, and alcohol also negatively affect vestibular and auditory function\, and may have mechanisms similar to oto-vestibulotoxicity. \nThe literature\, consisting mainly of single-study case reports\, suggests that illicit and prescribed opioid drug misuse can cause temporary or permanent hearing loss\, and\, more consistently\, alcohol misuse impairs balance function (Moreira et al. 2012; Schmidt et al. 2010) but could affect the peripheral vestibular organs (Belle et al.\, 2007; Sasa et al.\, 1982)\, thus there is likely differential effects based on substance type and use patterns. \nThis presentation will provide snapshot of the existing literature\, with an emphasis on the vestibular system\, and discuss the practical approaches to vestibular assessment in patients with suspected substance misuse-related vestibular dysfunction. \n\nLearning Outcomes: \n1. Describe basic vestibular toxicity mechanisms and predisposing factors in adults.\n2. Describe the existing literature on substance use disorders and the vestibular effects.\n3. Identify vestibular testing modifications for patients with substance misuse histories. \nRegister Now!
