Formulations for trans-tympanic antibiotic delivery [PDF]
We have developed a drug delivery system for prolonged trans-tympanic antibiotic delivery from a single dose administration. Increased permeability to ciprofloxacin of the intact tympanic membrane (TM) was achieved by chemical permeation enhancers (CPEs -

Trans-tympanic Cartilage Chip Insertion for Intractable Patulous Eustachian Tube [PDF]
Patulous Eustachian tube (PET) causes troublesome autophony. We treated PET using tragal cartilage chip insertion to fill in the concavity within the tubal valve and evaluated the feasibility of this method.This study used a prospective design. Eleven patients with PET disorder were included.

Novel hybrid tri-polymer hyalurosomes: unlocking next-generation trans-tympanic therapeutics through multi-Scale evaluations [PDF]
Acute otitis media (AOM) remains one of the most common middle ear infections, particularly in children, necessitating advanced non-invasive therapeutic strategies. This study introduces Novel Hybrid Tri-Polymer Hyalurosomes, an innovative vesicular system designed to enhance trans-tympanic delivery of ciprofloxacin (CFX).

Peptides rapidly transport antibiotic across the intact tympanic membrane to treat a middle ear infection [PDF]
The tympanic membrane (TM) forms an impenetrable barrier to medical therapies for middle ear (ME) diseases like otitis media. By screening a phage-displayed peptide library, we have previously discovered rare peptides that mediate the active transport of

Trans-Tympanic Drug Delivery for the Treatment of Ototoxicity. [PDF]
The systemic administration of protective agents to treat drug-induced ototoxicity is limited by the possibility that these protective agents could interfere with the chemotherapeutic efficacy of the primary drugs. This is especially true for the drug cisplatin, whose anticancer actions are attenuated by antioxidants which provide adequate protection ...

Tympanic Pre-Operative Electrically Evoked Auditory Late Response (TympEALR) as an Alternative to Trans-Tympanic Tests Using Anesthesia in Cochlear Implant Candidacy. [PDF]
Background/Objectives: Before a cochlear implant is considered, patients undergo various audiological tests to assess their suitability. One key test measures the auditory brainstem response (ABR) to acoustic stimuli.
