MODERN APPROACH TO TREATMENT OF THE UPPER RESPIRATORY TRACT AND MIDDLE EAR DISEASES AS A PREVENTION OF LOSS HEARING
https://doi.org/10.15690/pf.v9i1.162
Abstract
High prevalence of asymptomatic diseases of the middle ear in children is caused both by high frequency of infectious and inflammatory lesions of the upper respiratory tract and lack of appropriate alertness in pediatricians. Due to that the number of patients with mild conduction deafness, caused mainly by exudative otitis media, is steady rising. In such cases the main methods of primary and secondary prophylaxis of permanent hearing impairment are adequate therapy of respiratory infections and early diagnostics of productive inflammatory processes in middle ear cavities. The article reflects modern approaches of complex topic treatment of acute and chronic respiratory tract diseases, associated with middle ear involvement and particularly the role and possibilities of mucolytic agents.
