Ans. A. BERASensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) is the most common neuropsychological sequel of ABM.It occurs in as many as 30% of patients with pneumococcal meningitis, 10% with meningococcal meningitis and 5-20% with Haemophilus influenza type 'b' meningitis.The effect of SNHL on language is well-recognized and therefore early detection is mandatory.
