The present study was designed to determine whether auditory processing disorders are present in children with documented middle ear effusion (MEE) that required surgical treatment. Children with previous MEE and control subjects, in two age groups, were studied using five tests of auditory processing abilities: low-pass filtered speech, staggered spondaic word test, speech in noise, auditory sequential memory, and sound blending. Results found differences in groups at mean age 7 on the filtered speech tests, but no statistical differences were found on any other test at age 7 or on any test at mean age 9. The results indicate that well-managed MEE appears to have no long-term effects on children acquiring this disease.
本研究旨在确定在有记录的需要手术治疗的中耳积液（MEE）儿童中是否存在听觉处理障碍。对两个年龄组中有过中耳积液病史的儿童和对照组进行了五项听觉处理能力测试：低通滤波言语、交错扬扬格词测试、噪声中的言语、听觉序列记忆和语音混合。结果发现，在平均年龄7岁时，两组在滤波言语测试中存在差异，但在7岁时的任何其他测试或平均年龄9岁时的任何测试中均未发现统计学差异。结果表明，得到妥善治疗的中耳积液似乎对患此病的儿童没有长期影响。
