Secretory middle ear otitis is of difficult assessment in children with severe hearing impairment. This otitis, very frequent in infants and children, influences negatively the auditive capacity and apprenticeship as well. Our study deals with the prevalence and severity of the secretive middle ear otitis in an scholar population handicapped by a heavy hypoacusia. Demographically, etiologic and seasonal correlations are considered in the paper. The outcome shows a high incidence of the condition, an inversely relation with the age, an evident seasonal distribution and the absence of correlation between etiology of middle ear disease and sensorineural deafness.
分泌性中耳炎在重度听力障碍儿童中难以评估。这种中耳炎在婴幼儿和儿童中非常常见,对听力和学习能力也有负面影响。我们的研究探讨了重度听力减退的学龄人群中分泌性中耳炎的患病率和严重程度。本文从人口统计学、病因学和季节相关性方面进行了考量。结果显示该病症发病率高,与年龄呈反比关系,有明显的季节性分布,且中耳疾病病因与感音神经性耳聋之间不存在相关性。
