APPLICATION OF ANTIBIOTIC-CONTAINING EAR DROPS IN TREATMENT OF ACUTE OTITIS MEDIA

Area of Science:

• Otolaryngology
• Infectious Diseases
• Pharmacology

Background:

• Otitis, a significant ear condition, requires prompt and appropriate treatment to prevent complications.
• The study included 250 patients aged 2 to 64, diagnosed with various forms of otitis, including middle purulent otitis, middle secretory otitis, external diffuse otitis, and external otitis media.

Purpose of the Study:

• To assess the efficacy of antibiotic-containing ear drops when used with mono- or systemic antibiotics for acute otitis media.
• To provide data on treatment outcomes for different types of otitis.

Main Methods:

• Descriptive statistics were employed for data analysis.
• Frequency distribution of variables was determined.
• Results were presented using numeric values and percentages.

Main Results:

• The study analyzed data from 250 patients with different otitis diagnoses.
• Efficacy of antibiotic ear drops in combination therapy was investigated.
• Data on patient demographics and diagnoses were collected anonymously.

Conclusions:

• Timely and adequate treatment is crucial for curing otitis and avoiding complications.
• The research provides a basis for understanding the effectiveness of combined antibiotic therapies for otitis media.
