Abstract

Otitis media with effusion (OME) is defined as collection
of fluid in the middle ear, without the symptoms and signs of acute ear
infection.
Its
synonyms include ‘glue ear’ and serous otitis media.
 OME occurs commonly during childhood and is the most common cause of hearing loss in children. Otitis media with effusion
(OME) is a common problem facing general practitioners, pediatricians and
otolaryngologists.



In this chapter an algorithm was developed in the scope
of other gidelines. This algorithm for the management of otitis media with effusion
in children provide recommendations to clinicians for the diagnosis and
treatment.

Abstract

Efüzyonlu
otitis media akut kulak enfeksiyonunun semptom ve belirtileri olmaksızın orta
kulakta sıvı toplanması olarak tanımlanmaktadır. Glue ear veya seröz otitis
media olarak da adlandırılır. EOM yaygın bir şekilde çocukluk çağında karşımıza
çıkan bir hastalıktır ve çocuklardaki işitme
kaybının en sık rastlanan sebebidir. Aile hekimleri, pediatristler ve kulak
burun boğaz hekimlerinin en sık karşılaştığı yaygın bir problemdir.  Bu bölümde mevcut rehberler ışığında
bir algoritma geliştirilmiştir. Bu algoritma EOM'nın tanı ve tedavisi konusunda
klinisyenlere yol gösteren öneriler içermektedir.
