A follow-up study to document the rate of tympanic membrane perforation following surgical removal of ventilation tubes with Gelfoam/Gelfilm patching in paediatric patients is presented. The initial study performed at The Hospital for Sick Children with no patching following ventilation tube removal had a perforation rate of 10.3%. This follow-up study used Gelfoam/Gelfilm patching of perforations at the time of ventilation tube removal performed between January 1993 and May 1994 at the same hospital. There was sufficient follow-up on 155 ears with (4.5%) documented perforations, a significant difference from the the no-patching technique.
本文介绍了一项随访研究，该研究记录了在儿科患者中使用明胶海绵/明胶膜贴片进行通气管手术切除后鼓膜穿孔的发生率。最初在病童医院进行的研究中，通气管移除后未进行贴片处理，穿孔率为10.3%。这项随访研究于1993年1月至1994年5月在同一家医院进行，在通气管移除时使用明胶海绵/明胶膜对穿孔进行贴片处理。对155只耳朵进行了充分的随访，记录到穿孔率为4.5%，与未贴片技术相比有显著差异。
