ABSTRACT
Objective:
To evaluate the Eustachian tube function of children with simple adenoid hypertrophy and adenoid hypertrophy with secretory otitis mediaï¼OMEï¼ by using the A/N value of lateral radiograph of nasopharyngeal X-ray and EDQ-7 scale scores.Methods:
Sixty cases of children with adenoid hypertrophy admitted from February 2019 to August 2021 were all underwent nasopharyngeal X-ray lateral radiographs to determine the adenoid/nasopharyngeal cavity ratioï¼A/N ratioï¼ and then determine the size of adenoids. The Eustachian tube function ETDQ-7 survey was used to evaluate the patient's self-evaluation of the severity of the disease and ear symptoms, and the degree of influence were scored. Subsequently, the correlation between adenoid hypertrophy with OME and ETDQ-7 scores was statistically analyzed by using the Spearman rank correlation statistical method.Results:
In adenoid hypertrophy with OME group, the ETDQ-7 scores of A/N≤0.60, A/N 0.61-0.70 and A/N≥0.71 were 4.15±1.75, 14.55±6.67 and 23.95±6.63, respectively. The higher the grade of adenoid hypertrophy, the higher the ETDQ-7 scores. In adenoid hypertrophy with OME group, the degree of adenoid hypertrophy was positively correlated with the ETDQ-7 scoresï¼P<0.05ï¼.Conclusion:
Adenoid hypertrophy is also one of the potential factors causing OME in children.Palavras-chave
