A Multi‐Center Study of Ossiculoplasty Hearing Outcomes and a Grading Scale of Ear Environment Risk
This is a clinical article that analyzed data from a large multi‐institution database of ossiculoplasty outcomes to determine which ear environment risk factors independently are associated with postoperative hearing outcomes. The identified risk factors were utilized to create a novel ear environment risk‐weighted grading scale with risk groupings the
