Information from the 1988 National Health Interview Survey Medical Device Implant Supplement was used to obtain the first population estimates of the prevalence of implanted tympanostomy tubes, a common treatment for otitis media. The prevalence rate was estimated to be 13 per 1000 children aged younger than 18 years. Statistically significant differences in prevalence were found for sex (boys, 15/1000; girls, 10/1000), race (Whites, 15/1000; others, 4/1000), and activity level ("limited," 44/1000; others, 11/1000). Thirty percent of the tubes were replacements; infection was the reason for 75% of the original implants. The morbidity and costs associated with tympanostomy tubes are of public health importance.
1988年全国健康访谈调查医疗设备植入补充调查的信息被用于获取植入鼓膜造孔管（一种治疗中耳炎的常用方法）患病率的首批人群估计值。据估计，18岁以下儿童的患病率为每1000人中有13人。在性别（男孩，每1000人中有15人；女孩，每1000人中有10人）、种族（白人，每1000人中有15人；其他种族，每1000人中有4人）和活动水平（“受限”，每1000人中有44人；其他，每1000人中有11人）方面，患病率存在统计学上的显著差异。30%的管子是更换的；感染是75%初次植入的原因。与鼓膜造孔管相关的发病率和成本具有公共卫生重要性。
