Bacteriology of otitis media with effusion

The Journal of Laryngology & Otology, 1989
AbstractA study was undertaken to evaluate the prevalence and antibiotic susceptibility of bacteria present in the middle ear of patients with otitis media with effusion. Middle ear effusions (MEE), nasopharyngeal and throat swabs were obtained at operation and cultured for aerobic and anaerobic bacteria.

Mucosubstances in Otitis Media with Effusion

Annals of Otology, Rhinology & Laryngology, 1979
Histochemical localization of sialomucins and sulfated polysaccharides have been demonstrated in the mucous membrane of the middle ear in different middle ear effusions. Inasmuch as a more neutral stain with alcian blue-PAS is still present after treatment with neuraminidase, it is strongly suggested that neutral polysaccharides coexist with ...

The microbiome of otitis media with effusion

The Laryngoscope, 2016
Objectives/HypothesisThe adenoid pad has been considered a reservoir for bacteria in the pathogenesis of otitis media with effusion. This study aimed to characterize the middle ear microbiota in children with otitis media with effusion and establish whether a correlation exists between the middle ear and adenoid microbiota.Study DesignProspective ...

Otitis Media With Effusion

Pediatrics, 2004
The clinical practice guideline on otitis media with effusion (OME) provides evidence-based recommendations on diagnosing and managing OME in children. This is an update of the 1994 clinical practice guideline “Otitis Media With Effusion in Young Children,” which was developed by the Agency for Healthcare Policy and Research (now the Agency for ...

Immunochemistry of Otitis Media with Effusion

Journal of Infectious Diseases, 1976
For investigation of the nature and origin of middle ear effusions, immunochemical studies were performed on more than 400 patients diagnosed as having otitis media with effusion. Although results of cellulose acetate and disc electrophoretic analyses and quantitation of IgG, IgA, and IgM suggested that proteins found in the effusions were derived for ...

Chronic Otitis Media with Effusion

Pediatrics In Review, 1999
Chronic OME, which arises from a complex series of inflammatory events in the middle ear, affects approximately 5% to 30% of children. The mean duration of MEE is 16 to 20 weeks during the first 2 years of life. This condition is diagnosed best with pneumatic otoscopy and tympanometry.

Adenoids and Otitis Media with Effusion

Annals of Otology, Rhinology & Laryngology, 1979
At adenoidectomy specimens for bacteriological, virological, and histological investigation were obtained from the adenoids of 144 children, 53 of whom suffered from otitis media with effusion, or frequently recurring otitis media. Comparison of findings in the children with ear diseases with those obtained in the rest of the material showed that ...

Treatment of Otitis Media with Effusion

Auris Nasus Larynx, 1985
It seems probable that otitis media with effusion (OME) arises from acute OM and cannot be mistaken for suppurative OM since its inflammation recedes to a lesser degree. Accordingly, my concept for treatment of patients with OME focuses on the inflammation. The purpose of this paper is to describe treatment on the basis of this concept.
