HUANG Jing
Abstract:Objective To investigate the evaluation of external auditory canal irrigators in clinical application. Meth-ods A total of 115 patients including 144 ears with suppurative otitis media were enrolled ,in this study. With methods of ran-dom grouping, the patients were divided into experimental group and control group. In experimental group, external auditory canal irrigators were used to wash with hydrogen peroxide, ambroxol, chymotrypsin, or saline, which was decided according to the state and age of patients. As a comparison, the conventional methods of washing using the same drugs mentioned above were used in the control group. All the outcomes were observed among one course of 7 days. Results Cure rate of 58 patients 75ears in experimental group was 44.82%and effective rate was 75.86%. Cure rate and effective rate of 57 patients 69 ears in control group were 29.82%and 50.88%, respectively. There was significant statistical difference between the two groups (P<0.05). Conclusions External auditory canal irrigators, easily made and manipulated, are better to protect auditory meatus, tympanic and tympanic membrane. So they are well worthy of popularizing.
