To investigate the change of word recognition score(WRS) during the treatment of patients with idiopathic sudden sensorineural hearing loss(ISSNHL) and explore the role of WRS in outcomes assessment of ISSNHL.Thirty-seven patients diagnosed with ISSNHL,whose pure-tone average(PTA) has no change but WRS has improved after treatment,were analyzed retrospectively.The WRS and the test intensity for WRS of pre-treatment and those of post-treatment were compared statistically.There is statistical significance between WRS of post-treatment and that of pre-treatment(<0.01).The increase of WRS score is consistent with improvement of symptom in these patients.More attention needs to be paid to WRS during treatment of ISSNHL patients,especially those whose PTA has no improvement but patients feel better about their hearing,and WRS could be an important factor in terms of outcome assessment during treatment of ISSNHL patients for the further treatment.
探讨特发性突发性感音神经性听力损失（ISSNHL）患者治疗期间单词识别分数（WRS）的变化，并探究WRS在ISSNHL疗效评估中的作用。回顾性分析37例诊断为ISSNHL的患者，这些患者治疗后纯音平均听阈（PTA）无变化但WRS有所改善。对治疗前和治疗后的WRS及其测试强度进行统计学比较。治疗后的WRS与治疗前的WRS之间存在统计学差异（<0.01）。这些患者WRS分数的增加与症状改善一致。在ISSNHL患者治疗期间，尤其是那些PTA无改善但患者感觉听力有所好转的患者，需要更多关注WRS，并且WRS可能是ISSNHL患者治疗期间疗效评估的一个重要因素，有助于进一步治疗。
