To compare the clinical efficacy of Antibiotic-Steroid pack with Glycerine pack for relieving pain and oedema in cases of acute otitis externa.
A COMPARATIVE STUDY.
Tertiary care center ( S.N.Medical college, Bagalkot).
20 patients clinically diagnosed with acute otitis externa.
There were 10 patients in antibiotic-steroid pack group and 10 patients in glycerine group. There was female predominance in both the treatment groups and disease was most common in age group 12-20 years. There was no statistical significant decrease in pain and oedema in both the groups. But early reduction in sign and symptoms was noted in antibiotic-steroid group than glycerine group.
Since the control of pain and edema is more and hence the number of visits is less in steroid-antibiotic packing group, so it is worthwhile to use steroid-antibiotic than glycerine pack.
比较抗生素 - 类固醇组合包与甘油包缓解急性外耳道炎患者疼痛和水肿的临床疗效。
一项对比研究。
三级医疗中心(巴加尔科特S.N.医学院)。
20例临床诊断为急性外耳道炎的患者。
抗生素 - 类固醇组合包组有10例患者,甘油组有10例患者。两个治疗组均以女性为主,该疾病在12 - 20岁年龄组最为常见。两组的疼痛和水肿均无统计学意义上的显著减轻。但抗生素 - 类固醇组比甘油组的体征和症状更早减轻。
由于类固醇 - 抗生素包装组对疼痛和水肿的控制更好,因此就诊次数更少,所以使用类固醇 - 抗生素比甘油包更值得。
