美國地震致失聰老人聽力恢復(fù)
2011-08-29 15:24:48 來源：中國日報 美國華盛頓市一位75歲的老人在兩個多月前因摔傷導(dǎo)致雙耳聽力喪失，而上周二（8月23日）發(fā)生在弗吉尼亞州5.8級的地震卻讓他的聽力奇跡般地恢復(fù)了。據(jù)老人介紹，地震發(fā)生時，他正在女兒和三個兒子的陪同下在美國退伍軍人管理署醫(yī)院看病。強烈的震感將老人從床上甩出，之后搖晃感停止，隨即老人驚訝地發(fā)現(xiàn)他竟然能夠清楚聽到兒子跟自己說話的聲音。 醫(yī)生表示，老人患的是傳導(dǎo)性聽力損失，主要是由中耳積液以及神經(jīng)損傷引起的。聽力恢復(fù)可能是因為老人所服用的藥物和地震促進(jìn)中耳積液的排除共同作用的結(jié)果。也有醫(yī)生指出，地震中的晃動并不能促進(jìn)中耳積液的排出，不過如果地震過程中周圍有人尖叫的話，也有可能會震動耳鼓從而讓積液排出。

For Robert Valderzak of Washington, D.C., Tuesday's earthquake was a miracle. Ever since he fell and fractured his skull on Father's Day, 75-year-old Valderzak had suffered severe hearing loss. But after the 5.8 quake, he could hear everything. "It was God's blessing," Valderzak told ABCNews.com, his voice shaking with emotion. "It was a miracle for me." Valderzak was visiting with his daughter and three sons when the quake rattled D.C.'s Veterans Affairs Hospital, where he is battling cancer. "It shook me terrible -- right out of the bed," said Valderzak. "But after that it stopped. And my son talked to me, and I could hear his voice."
