Caro Aurélio,
 
    Encontrei os seguintes resumos sobre acyclovir X surdez súbita. Infelizmente acho que não serão de grande ajuda em relação à unimed...

ISSN: 0003-4894 País de publicação: UNITED STATES Idioma: Eng Resumo: Experimental herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) labyrinthitis provides a model of idiopathic sudden sensorineural hearing loss (ISSHL). Corticosteroids improve the prognosis for hearing recovery in ISSHL, but the effects of acyclovir are unknown. To establish the therapeutic efficacy of acyclovir (Zovirax) and prednisolone in experimental HSV-1 viral labyrinthitis, we induced HSV-1 labyrinthitis in 12 guinea pigs. Three animals received no treatment, 3 received prednisolone, 3 received acyclovir, and 3 received both. Four other animals served as controls, receiving culture medium only. Hearing, HSV-1 antibody titers, and cochlear damage were evaluated. The HSV-1 labyrinthitis caused hearing loss within 24 hours. Combination treatment consisting of prednisolone and acyclovir resulted in earlier hearing recovery and less extensive cochlear destruction compared to prednisolone or acyclovir as a monotherapy. The beneficial effect of this treatment modality remains to be demonstrated in ISSHL (Au) Tipo de publicação: JOURNAL ARTICLE Nome de substância: 0 (Antiviral Agents); 0 (Glucocorticoids, Synthetic); 50-24-8 (Prednisolone); 59277-89-3 (Acyclovir)

Resumo:

A subclinical viral labyrinthitis has been postulated in the literature to elicit Idiopathic Sudden Sensorineural Hearing Loss. An etiological role for the herpes virus family is assumed. Corticosteroids possess a limited beneficial effect on hearing recovery in ISSHL. In this study, the therapeutic value of the antiherpetic drug aciclovir (Zovirax) on hearing recovery in 44 ISSHL patients receiving prednisolone is evaluated in a multicentre clinical trial. The study is designed prospectively, randomized, double-blind and placebo-controlled. Subjective parameters include hearing recovery, a pressure sensation on the affected ear, disequilibrium or vertigo and tinnitus. Audiometric parameters include pure tone and speech audiometry. A one-year follow up is obtained. Both the pressure sensation and disequilibrium or vertigo have a good prognosis, but tinnitus, occurring in most patients, has a poor prognosis. Hearing recovery prognosis depends on the severity of initial hearing loss, and not on vestibular involvement. No beneficial effect from combining aciclovir with prednisolone can be established in ISSHL (Au)

Subject: [otorri.] SURDEZ SÚBITA - PROTOCOLO de TRATAMENTO

Caros colegas gostaria de receber referências bibliográficas sobre condutas em SURDEZ SÚBITA.
 
Há cerca de 1 ano internei um paciente com Surdez Súbita e fiz o PROTOCOLO ensinado aqui pelo Prof. Ricardo Bento [ DEXTRAN + DECADRON + ZOVIRAX ] e me recordo bem que não havia nada ainda confirmado sobre o uso do acyclovir em casos iniciais onde não houvesse suspeita de acometimento viral, mas que pela experiência pessoal do Prof. poderia haver uma melhora do quadro se iniciado até o 5 º dia .
 
O problema que enfrento no momento é com a auditoria da UNIMED , pois segundo os mesmos a conta ficou caríssima e não há nenhuma REFERÊNCIA BIBLIOGRÁFICA que respalde a minha prescrição.  CONCLUSÃO : GLOSARAM a CONTA .
 
Passo no momento por uma situação vexatória  no hospital ,  na unimed e com o paciente e seus familiares.
 
Agradeço antecipadamente a ajuda de todos.
Aurélio
