The article presents the results of assessing the informativeness (sensitivity and specificity) of the diagnostic approach for screening persons with a high risk of aminoglycoside ototoxicity, based on the autonomic resonance test. According to the authors, the proposed test meets the
requirements for screening diagnostic methods, allows one to assess the sensitivity to aminoglycosides by such a phenotypic trait as sensitivity to resonance between oscillations of neuroepithelial fiber cells of the auditory analyzer and oscillations of aminoglycosides.
