Evaluación de los cambios en oído medio con timpanometría en pacientes de uci

González Pena, Míriam 16 December 2010 (has links)
OBJETIVOS: La otitis media con efusión es rara en la población adulta pero se ha descrito una incidencia mayor en pacientes intubados de las Unidades de Cuidados Intensivos (UCI). El objetivo de este estudio es examinar el efecto de los factores predisponentes sobre la OME.MATERIAL Y MÉTODOS: Se ha realizado un estudio observacional para evaluar a 100 pacientes intubados (>3días) en la UCI. Recogimos información sobre la edad, sexo, posición, duración de la intubación orotraqueal, fosa nasal y diámetro de la sonda nasogástica y nivel de consciencia. También se llevaron a cabo timpanometrías y una evaluación otoscópica para evidenciar la OME.RESULTADOS: Realizamos 535 observaciones de oídos. Los resultados se clasificaron como curvas normales (tipos A y C1 de Jerger) y patológicas (tipos B y C2 de Jerger). La presencia de sonda nasogástrica (≥18French), intubación orotraqueal e inconsciencia se asociaron significativamente a curvas patológicas.CONCLUSIONES: La presencia de sonda nasogástrica (≥18French), intubación orotraqueal e inconsciencia se mostraron como factores predisponentes para la OME. / OBJECTIVES: Otitis media with effusion (OME) is rare among adults, but has been reported a higher incidence among intubated intensive care unit (ICU) patients. The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of the predisposing factors on OME.MATERIALS AND METHODS: An observational study has been performed to evaluate 100 intubated patients (>3days) in the ICU. We collected information about the age, sex, position, duration of orotracheal intubation, nasal nostril and diameter of nasogastric tube and level of consciousness. In addition, tympanometry and otoscopic examination were carried out for evidence of OME. RESULTS: We realized 535 ear observations. The results were classified as normal (type A and C1 Jerger tympanogram) or pathologic (type B and C2 Jerger tympanogram) curves. For statistical purposes we realized Cox regression adjusted by days from admission. Presence of nasogastric tube (≥18French), orotracheal intubation and unconsciousness were associated significantly with pathologic curves. CONCLUSIONS: Orotracheal intubation, nasogastric tube (≥18French), and unconsciousness were significant predisposing factors of OME.
