Sensorineural Hearing Loss (SNHL) – Market outlook, Epidemiology, Competitive Landscape and Market Forecast Report – 2020 To 2030
Sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) is the most common type and accounts for the majority of all hearing loss. Sensorineural hearing loss results from damage to the hair cells within the inner ear, the vestibulocochlear nerve, or the brain's central processing centers. This differs from a conductive hearing loss, which results from the inability of sound waves to reach the inner ear. There are several possible causes of SNHL, including trauma, infection, malignancy, and Meniere's disease; however, there is no identifiable cause of their hearing loss in most patients and will be classed as idiopathic. · The incidence of sensorineural hearing loss varies in different countries. In the United States, SNHL incidence cases range between 7 to 25 cases per 100,000 population. The competitive landscape of Sensorineural Hearing Loss (SNHL) includes country-specific approved as well as pipeline therapies. Any asset/product-specific designatio...
