Abstract
- The goal of treatment in OME is normal aerated middle ear space. When the tympanogram convert to type A or C from type B in patients with OME, no further medication would be needed. But 1/3 of these patient had type B tympanogram again after 4 weeks follow up without medication. Many parameters-including age, sex, season, unilaterality, passive smoking, associated rhinitis etc-were concerned about the recurrence of OME. Ultra high frequency audiometry was added as a new parameter in recurrence of OME.
