目的探讨听性脑干反应(auditory brainstem response,ABR)测试在1岁6个月~6岁的儿童分泌性中耳炎诊治中的应用价值。方法①在首诊时采用ABR测试97例179耳1岁6个月~6岁的分泌性中耳炎患儿,根据反应阈提高的程度分为3组:轻度组为20~30dB nHL,中度组为40~60dB nHL;重度组为70~90dB nHL。以同一年龄段的正常小儿为对照组,分析4组ABR波潜伏期和波间期的特点。②选择轻,中度组病例各10例(20耳)、重度组5例(10耳),行鼓膜穿刺或鼓膜切开术,分析中耳积液量和性状与ABR波潜伏期的关系。③随诊治疗中,每周检测ABR一次,以监测疗效,并以对照组ABR潜伏期和反应阈为指标判断预后。结果①轻、中、重度3组随着ABR反应阈的提高,Ⅰ、Ⅲ、Ⅴ波潜伏期延长增多,而波间期无明显变化。②轻、中度组随着中耳积液的增多变稠,ABR的Ⅰ、Ⅲ、Ⅴ波潜伏期延长增多。重度组中耳积液与中度组无明显差异,而Ⅰ、Ⅲ、Ⅴ波潜伏期延长却明显增加。③轻、中、重度3组预后不同。结论在分泌性中耳炎的诊治中,声导抗测试虽能为中耳病变提供重要依据,但辅以ABR测试,不仅能提供更多的中耳信息,还能反映内耳功能和高频听觉状态,作为该病诊断以及判断疗效和预后的依据。 相似文献

The auditory brain-stem responses (ABRs) of 18 children who received tympanostomy tubes due to well-documented history of otitis media with effusion (OME) were compared with a matched control group with little or no history of effusion. The subjects in the OME group had significantly longer ABR latencies for waves III and V, with the most compelling delay for wave III and the III-I interwave interval. Although wave I prolongation in the OME group was not significant, the possible contribution of a peripheral effect on the latencies of waves III and V was investigated. The typical gender effect for the ABR latencies was unaltered in the OME group, and there was no group by gender interaction. We suggest that although the data support increased ABR latencies for children with a history of OME, they do not establish a causal relationship. 相似文献

The course of chronic otitis media with effusion (OME) was studied in 117 children (207 ears). Diagnosis was based on otoscopy and a flat (type B) tympanogram. This was compared with the presence or absence of middle ear effusion at myringotomy carried out 0-3, 3-6, 6-9 and more than 9 months after diagnosis. There was a highly significant reduction in the number of effusions diagnosed at myringotomy in those patients who had waited longer for operation. The effects of previous ventilation tube insertion, adenoidectomy, medical treatment between diagnosis and operation, month of diagnosis and month of admission on the results were examined. Tympanosclerosis and atelectasis occurred in 7.3 and 6.3% of ears respectively and in most cases were associated with previous grommet insertion. 相似文献

One hundred and thirteen children with bilateral otitis media with effusion (OME) underwent myringotomy and insertion of Shah grommets. They were classified into three groups according to the presence or absence of 'glue under pressure' unilaterally or bilaterally. The follow up period ranging between 18 and 32 months determined the comparative rate of recurrence of OME and the number of grommet reinsertions. This study shows a significantly higher incidence of recurrent OME, requiring grommet reinsertion, in ears with glue under pressure (60 per cent) compared to those with glue not under pressure (7.4 per cent). Thus it was possible to identify a subset of children with OME who have a poorer prognosis for recurrence and who should be treated with long-stay grommets in the first instance. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To determine the effect of topical adrenaline application after myringotomy and before tympanostomy tube placement on the development of myringosclerosis. STUDY DESIGN: A prospective, randomized, double-blind study, with each patient acting as his or her own control. Ethical approval and full parental consent were obtained. SETTING: Department of Otorhinolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery in a university teaching hospital. PATIENTS: Fifty children satisfying inclusion and exclusion criteria for first-time tympanostomy tube insertion. THERAPEUTIC INTERVENTION: Myringotomy followed by adrenaline application to incision before tympanostomy tube insertion. Control contralateral ear received saline application after myringotomy. Follow-up examination was done 14 to 21 days after surgery and again after 1 year by a single blinded surgeon. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE: Comparison of myringosclerosis between adrenaline-treated ears and matched control ears. RESULTS: No difference was found in early morbidity between the two groups of ears. Myringosclerosis after 1 year was not found to have been significantly affected by adrenaline application (p = 0.2) CONCLUSION: The use of adrenaline on the myringotomy site before tympanostomy tube placement was not found to influence early postoperative morbidity or the later development of myringosclerosis. 相似文献

Telescopic myringotomy and tube application 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5

Otoendoscopy is a new technique in otological surgery. The traditional surgery for otitis media with effusion (OME) is myringotomy and tube insertion using an operating microscope. In 45 children and five adults presenting to our department with otitis media with effusion, rigid endoscopic myringotomy and grommet tube insertion were performed using 2.7 mm diameter and 0 degree and 30 degrees angle telescopes under general anaesthesia for children and local anaesthesia for adults. The use of rigid endoscopes provides a large field of view, that is of excellent resolution and fidelity of colour as well as giving good side views. It can be performed in the out-patient clinic with little inconvenience to the patient and minimal risks. 相似文献

Objective: To explore treatments for postirradiation otitis media with effusion (OME) in patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma. Study Design: This study is a prospective quasi‐randomized clinical trial. Methods: Ninety‐six patients (135 ears) with OME after the first course of radiotherapy for nasopharyngeal carcinoma were divided into three groups: simple auripuncture plus aspiration, tympanic membrane fenestration with cauterization, and myringotomy plus grommet insertion. Cure rates and incidences of complications were compared. Results: Two deaths occurred. The other 94 patients (132 ears) finished a 2‐year follow‐up. In group 1, four ears (8.9%) were cured after the first treatment and 17 ears overall (37.8%) were cured by the end of the follow‐up. Twenty ears (44.4%) had persistent fluid, two ears (4.4%) developed chronic suppurative otitis media, and five ears (11.1%) developed dry eardrum perforation. In group 2, seven ears (15.6%) were cured after the first treatment and 21 ears overall (46.7%) were cured by the end of the follow‐up. Fourteen ears (31.1%) had persistent fluid, three ears (6.7%) developed chronic suppurative otitis media, and seven ears (15.6%) developed dry eardrum perforation. In group 3, eight ears (17.8%) were cured after the first treatment and 23 ears overall (51.1%) were cured by the end of the follow‐up. Seven ears (15.6%) had persistent fluid, five ears (11.1%) developed chronic suppurative otitis media, three ears (6.7%) developed eardrum perforation with effusion, and five ears (11.1%) developed dry eardrum perforation. Conclusion: The methods each have advantages and disadvantages. We believe that a step by step approach should be used when choosing the treatment method for postirradiation OME. That is, first apply auripuncture plus aspiration, and then the other methods if this approach is inadequate. Enhanced local care after grommet insertion can effectively reduce the incidence of complications. 相似文献

Two groups of patients from the same era were retrospectively studied in Cincinnati and Chicago. In Cincinnati two subgroups were studied. The first group received myringotomy with insertion of a 'T'-shaped ventilating tube (75 patients, 140 ears, 147 insertions). Fifty-eight ears still had the tube in place, 31 had healed after spontaneous extrusion, 17 had healed after removal of the tube, 20 had persistent perforation after the tube was gone, 2 had a cholesteatoma, and 4 patients (7 ears) were lost to follow-up. The second set received myringotomy and insertion of a small grommet (Donaldson tube, 71 patients, 140 ears, 164 insertions) tympanostomy tube. None could be documented to still have the tube in place, 156 ears healed after spontaneous extrusion, none required removal, 3 ears had a persistent perforation after the tube was gone, none had cholesteatoma, and 5 patients (5 ears) were lost to follow-up. The perforation rate for the T-tube is 13.6% and for the grommet is 1.8% (P = 0.0005). In Chicago, 93 patients who received the Goode T style tube (175 ears, 175 insertions) prior to March, 1986 were evaluated. The degree of retraction of the tympanic membrane preoperatively was recorded. No ears still had the tube in place, 145 had healed after spontaneous extrusion or removal of the tube, 30 had persistent perforation 12 months after the tube was gone, 4 had a cholesteatoma, and 8 patients (15 ears) were lost to follow-up. The rate of perforation is 18.8% which is not statistically different from the Cincinnati rate.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献
