This Retrospective observational study was done over a period of 5 years, consisting of 2530 patients with chronic otitis media (COM) attended ENT OPD of a tertiary care hospital of Central India.COM commonly occurs in the age group from 11 to 20 years (37.12%). Females are more predominantly effected than males. Mucosal type (76.4%) is more common. Complications were associated with squamous type of COM.Pus culture showed positive growth of Pseudomonas in 33.9% cases. COM is a common public health problem that is often wrongly trivialized by people. Health awareness campaign, improved health education and easy accessibility to health care facilities can reduce the morbidity and mortality of this disease and therefore can reduce the incidence of this disease.
这项回顾性观察研究历时5年,纳入了2530例慢性中耳炎(COM)患者,这些患者均就诊于印度中部一家三级护理医院的耳鼻喉科门诊。COM常见于11至20岁年龄组(37.12%)。女性比男性受影响更为主。黏膜型(76.4%)更为常见。并发症与鳞状型COM相关。脓液培养显示33.9%的病例中铜绿假单胞菌生长呈阳性。COM是一个常见的公共卫生问题,人们常常将其错误地视为小事。健康意识宣传、改善健康教育以及提高医疗设施的可及性可以降低该疾病的发病率和死亡率,从而降低其发生率。
