Less than 3% of losses are due to mitochondrial genetic faults and X linked chromosomes.

How does sensory impairment affect mobility?
Sensory impairment, such as vision or hearing loss, can significantly affect mobility by hindering an individual's ability to navigate their environment safely. For instance, individuals with vision impairment may struggle to detect obstacles, changes in terrain, or traffic signals, increasing the risk of falls and accidents. Similarly, hearing loss can prevent individuals from hearing warning signals or verbal cues from others, which can also impact their awareness of surroundings. Overall, these impairments can lead to decreased independence and increased reliance on assistive devices or support from others for safe mobility.

Conduction Hearing Impairment Refers To Hearing Problems That Originate Where?
Conduction hearing impairment refers to hearing problems that originate in the outer or middle ear. This type of impairment occurs when sound waves cannot efficiently travel through the ear canal to the eardrum or the ossicles (small bones in the middle ear). Common causes include earwax blockage, fluid accumulation, or structural issues. Unlike sensorineural hearing loss, conduction hearing impairment often can be treated or improved with medical intervention.
