Objectives: The aim of study is to evaluate and assess squeal of otitis media with effusion in children.
Methods: cross sectional retrospective study was admitted to children in age range 1 to 15 years old, all children who diagnosed as otitis media with effusion. patients who came to outpatient complaining of deafness, acute or chronic rhino sinusitis, snoring, sleep apnea, atopy and diagnosed as otitis media with effusion included in this study. full otolaryngological examination done for these patients including otoscopical examination, anterior rhinoscopy and nasal endoscopy. documented cases of OME by aural otoscopy included in this study Change of color and position of tympanic membrane, fluid level, retracted tympanic membrane considered as signs of otitis media with effusion. These patient submitted to tympanometry to confirm the diagnosis of effusion. Results: 252 kids have otitis media, mean age of them 9.2 ± 3.5 years old. (70.6%) of babies are males and (29.4%) are females. (42.9%) of babies are at age group 6-10 years. According to symptoms appear; (73%) of them have bilateral effusion. (43.7%) of babies have rhinitis. Just (9.9%) of them have atopy. (25%) of them have snoring. Just (7.5%) of babies have apnea. According to management types; (79.8%) have medical treatment and (20.2%) have surgical management. There is significant association between age groups and site of effusion. There is significant association between site of effusion and snoring, medical treatment, surgical procedure and recurrent of effusion. Conclusion: In current study males’ babies are more have OM with effusion. And most age group that have OM is 6-10 years old, most OM with effusion occur bilaterally and associated with rhinitis. There is association between site of effusion and snoring, medical treatment, surgical procedure and recurrent of effusion.
