OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS To compare the clinical failure rates among children with otorrhea through tympanostomy tubes treated with topical or systemic antibiotics versus topical saline. STUDY DESIGN Randomized, double-blind, controlled patient study. METHODS A three-armed randomized clinical trial using topical ciprofloxacin or oral amoxicillin or topical saline. The primary outcome was treat...
OBJECTIVES To use a human reliability assessment tool to identify commonly occurring errors during myringotomy and ventilation tube (VT) insertion and to quantify the likelihood of error occurrence. METHODS Error-free task analysis for myringotomy and VT insertion was defined at the outset. Fifty-five consecutive myringotomy and VT insertion procedures were videotaped. The operator was either...
IMPORTANCE Tympanostomy tube (TT) biofilm formation may lead to sequelae. OBJECTIVE To determine whether the acute pathogen Haemophilus influenzae promotes TT attachment and biofilm formation by the chronic pathogen Staphylococcus aureus. DESIGN AND SETTING Controlled, in vitro microbiological study at an academic research laboratory using TTs treated with 0 (untreated), 10, or 3000 µg/mL c...
Gene number difference among organisms demonstrates that new gene origination is a fundamental biological process in evolution. Exon shuffling has been universally observed in the formation of new genes. Yet to be learned are the ways new exons originate and evolve, and how often new exons appear. To address these questions, we identified 2695 newly evolved exons in the mouse and rat by compari...
OBJECTIVE To investigate the impact of seven-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine on tube insertions in a partial immunized pediatric population. STUDY DESIGN Retrospective ecological study. METHODS This study used Taiwan National Health Insurance Research Database for the period 2000-2009. Every child under 17 years old who received tubes during this 10-year period was identified and anal...
the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality and the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development indicates that in most cases, inserting tubes in the eardrums—a procedure called tympanostomy— of children under age 3 who have fluid in the middle ear has no measurable effect on improving their speech, language, cognitive, or psychosocial development at age 3. Fluid in the middle ea...
In order to clarify the role of Type I immunologic reactions in the etiology of otitis media with effusion (OME), kindergarten and elementary school children were given routine nasal allergy (NA) tests and otologic tests. Several children among them were evaluated for eustachian tube (ET) function before and after the intranasal histamine challenge, using the inflation-deflation test, and the n...
OBJECTIVE To determine the ototoxic potential of ciprofloxacin/dexamethasone eardrops. METHODS Ventilation tubes were inserted in the ears of 15 chinchillas. One ear was randomized to receive four drops of ciprofloxacin/dexamethasone. A control solution (0.45% NaCl) was applied in the contralateral ear. The eardrops were delivered twice daily for 7 consecutive days. Auditory brain stem respon...
