BACKGROUNDPediatric unilateral hearing loss (UHL), defined as hearing loss in one ear and normal hearing in the contralateral ear, can range in severity from mild to profound, with profound UHL referred to as single-sided deafness (SSD). Unilateral hearing loss can be congenital or acquired. It occurs at an estimated incidence of 0.6–0.7 in 1000 live births in the United States with increasing incidence (2.5%–6%) in school-age children (Centers for Disease Control Early Hearing Detection and Intervention [CDC] Database).
