Middle ear disease is today's primary aural health problem in school-age children. Until recently, pediatric health researchers were aware only of the medical consequences that middle ear disease had no children. Except in a few cases of chronic otitis media, the effects of middle ear disease were considered transitory. However, current research on middle ear disease suggests permanent changes in hearing sensitivity, reduced development of the auditory neural network and developmental delays in speech, language and cognitive skills dependent on hearing. This article presents a review of recent studies on the physical and behavioral aspects of middle ear disease and its sequelae in school children.
中耳疾病是当今学龄儿童主要的耳部健康问题。直到最近，儿科健康研究人员才意识到中耳疾病对儿童的医学影响。除了少数慢性中耳炎病例外，中耳疾病的影响被认为是暂时的。然而，目前关于中耳疾病的研究表明，听力敏感度会发生永久性变化，听觉神经网络发育减缓，以及依赖听力的言语、语言和认知技能出现发育迟缓。本文综述了近期关于中耳疾病及其后遗症对学童身体和行为方面影响的研究。
