Aspectos diagnósticos da otite média com derrame na faixa etária pediátrica

Abstract: OBJETIVOS: apresentar e discutir aspectos diagnósticos da otite média com derrame (OMD) na prática clínica da atenção primária à saúde. MÉTODOS: foram pesquisadas as bases de dados Medline, Lilacs e SciELO (1994-2004). Identificados 523 artigos, dos quais 30 foram considerados para o presente trabalho. RESULTADOS: os estudos revelaram disparidade entre as definições, inconsistência no quadro clínico e falta de padronização dos critérios diagnósticos.

“…This finding can lead us to the conclusion that VPD as well as CAs present in this group could be justified by these otorhinolaryngologic alterations and could lead to damage of the sampled children's hearing, as opacification and tympanic membrane retraction, along with other items, are evidence of the presence of effusion in the middle ear. 20 However, a similar result ( Table 4 ) can be visualized for the control group, in which the patients with CLP do not manifest VPD nor CAs. Opacification and retraction were also reported in other studies.…”

“…Otitis media with effusion (OME) was diagnosed by the following criteria (8): 1) at least two tympanic membrane anomalies including discoloration or darkening; and/or 2) retracted or concave tympanic membrane; and 3) decreased mobility or lack of movement on pneumatic otoscopy (PO). When pneumatic otoscopy proved inconclusive, tympanometry with a type B curve was employed.…”

“…6 It has a pattern of occurrence inversely proportional to age, with at least one episode in 91.1% of children up to two years old, 66% between two and five years old and 22% between five and 12 years old. 7 The OME presents multifactorial and still controversial etiopathogenesis. 5,8 Because of an inflammatory reaction in the middle ear mucosa of diverse etiology (infectious or not), there is excessive production of fluid in the tympanic cavity.…”
