Abstract

Bu çalışmanın amacı, Güneydoğu Anadolu Bölgesinde yer alan bir şehirdeki devlet okullarına devam eden ilköğretim çağındaki çocuklarda Efüzyonlu Otitis Media (EOM) prevalansını tespit etmektir. Çalışmaya 7-10 yaş arasındaki 204’ü kız (%48.6) ve 216’sı erkek (%51.4) olmak üzere toplam 420 çocuk dâhil edildi. Tüm katılımcılara otoskopik muayeneden sonra timpanometrik inceleme, ipsilateral akustik refleks ve Distortion Product Otoakustik Emisyon (DPOAE) testleri yapıldı. EOM prevalansı timpanometrik inceleme, ipsilateral akustik refleks ve DPOAE sonuçlarına göre %9.2 olarak bulundu. Çalışmaya katılan 41 çocukta Tip B timpanogram, 38 çocukta ise Tip C timpanogram elde edildi. Yaşla birlikte EOM prevalansında azalma gözlenmektedir. Elde edilen bulgulara göre EOM prevalansı literatür ile uyumlu bulundu. EOM prevalansının yüksek olması, yanında bir dizi problemi de yanında getirmektedir. Bundan dolayı ailelerin ve öğretmenlerin bu konuda dikkatli olması ve erken müdahale ile EOM’nin neden olabileceği problemlerin en aza indirgenmesi gerekmektedir.

Evaluation of the Prevalence of Otitis Media with Effusion in Primary School Age Children

Abstract

The aim of this study is to determine the prevalence of Otitis Media with Effusion (OME) in primary school children attending public schools in a province located in the Southeastern Anatolia Region. A total of 420 children, including 204 girls (48.6%) and 216 boys (51.4%) between 7-10 years were included in the study. All participants underwent tympanometric examination, ipsilateral acoustic reflex and Distortion Product Otoacoustic Emission (DPOAE) tests after otoscopic examination. OME prevalence was found as 9.2% according to tympanometric examination, ipsilateral acoustic reflex and DPOAE results. Among the children who participated in the study, Type B tympanograms were obtained in 41 children, and Type C tympanograms in 38 children. A decrease in OME prevalence is observed with age. According to the findings, EOM prevalence was found to be compatible with the literature. Besides the high prevalence of EOM, it also brings a series of problems. For this reason, parents and teachers should be careful about this issue and the problems caused by OME should be minimized by early intervention.
