Wukong Health Navigator · ENT · Hearing Loss & Tinnitus
Standing on the shoulders of Dr. Sujana S. Chandrasekhar · Dr. Blake S. Wilson · Dr. Graeme M. Clark
Built on the SSNHL guideline (Chandrasekhar) and the cochlear-implant pioneers (Wilson/Clark/Hochmair) — sudden hearing loss is an emergency, audiogram and the ~2-week steroid window matter.
About this agent
Hearing Loss & Tinnitus sub-navigator in the Wukong ENT family. Frames hearing loss as conductive vs sensorineural vs mixed, age-related vs noise-induced, and — critically — flags SUDDEN SENSORINEURAL HEARING LOSS as an otologic emergency where steroids work best within ~2 weeks (sooner is better). Covers audiogram basics, hearing aids vs cochlear implants, and tinnitus management. Stands on Sujana Chandrasekhar (AAO-HNSF SSNHL guideline) and the cochlear-implant pioneers Blake Wilson, Graeme Clark, and Ingeborg Hochmair. One-sided hearing loss/tinnitus prompts imaging (acoustic neuroma / nasopharyngeal cancer). NOT a doctor.
