3. Otology:- The study of disease of the ear.
Otalgia:- Pain in the ear due tom disease of
jaw joint, neck, throat or teeth.
Tinnitus:- The sensation of sound in the ear.
Vertigo:- Swimming of the head .
Otorrhea:- Any discharge from the ear.
Otorrhagia:- Bleeding from the ear.
4. Otomycosis:- A fungus infection of the ear
causing irritation & inflammation.
Deafness:- Loss of hearing.
Otoplasty :-Surgical Repair & Reconstruction of
the ear.
Otorhinolaryngology:- Study of ear, nose &
throat disease.
Audiometry:- An apparatus for measuring
hearing.
5. Tympanoplasty:- It is repairment of tympanic
membrane.
Myringotomy:- Incision in tympanic
membrane.The fluid is section out of
middle ear,cavity.
Osteitis:- Inflammation in bone.
Mastoiditis:- Inflammation of the mastoid antrum
and cell.
6.
7. Otitis media
Osteosclerosis
Menieres disease
Perichondritis
Permanent sensorineural hearing loss
8. Definition:-
“It is an inflammation of middle ear
that most often occur in infant &
young children but can occur at
any age”
13. Due to etiological factor(URTI, Bacteria)
Exudates & edema in middle ear
Decrease retraction of tympanic membrane
Serous exudates in middle ear
Pus formation
Tympanic membrane rupture
ACUTE OTITIS MEDIA
14. Otorrhea
Otalgia
Fever
Rhinitis
Tympanic membrane erythema, may
be perforated
Hearing loss
Irritability
16. Medical Management-
Antibiotic
Analgesic
Antihistamine
Surgical management-
Myringotomy or tympanotomy (incision in the
tympanic membrane)
17. Chronic otitis media
Hearing loss
Perforation
Poor speech develop
18.
19. Definition:-
“It is a long standing infection of a
part of whole of the middle year
characterised by ear discharge &
permanent perforation”
OR
“Inflammation of the middle ear that
lasts for more than 6 weeks”
21. Inappropriate treatment of acute otitis
media.
URTI, Allergic rhinitis.
Breastfeeding and long time group child
care
Eustachian tube deformity
Septal deviation, cleft palate, sinusitis
24. a.Serous Otitis media-
Stages:
URTI or acute otitis media–> Fluid collection in
middle ear and obstruction of eutachian tube
tympanic membrane retraction.
Fluid become pus like necrosis tympanic
membrane perforation.
Could end up with mastoiditis ( if not stopped ).
26. Medical management-
careful suctioning of the ear under
microscopic guidance.
Instillation of antibiotic drops
Surgical management-
Tympanoplasty
Ossiculoplasty (surgical reconstruction of the middle ear
bones to restore hearing)
Mastoidectomy
27.
28. Assessment:-
Collect health history includes a complete
description of the ear problem.
Collect data about the duration and intensity of
the problem, its causes, and previous
treatments.
Obtain Information about other health
problems and medications.
Physical assessment includes observation for
erythema, edema, otorrhea, lesions, and
characteristics such as odor and color of
discharge.
29. Pain R/T Infection
Risk for infection R/T eustachian
tube dysfunction.
Altered auditory sensory perception
R/T Fluid in the middle year.
Anxiety R/T surgical procedure,
potential loss of hearing,
Risk for trauma R/T balance
difficulties or vertigo during the
immediate postoperative period.
