Approaches to the correction of auditory tube dysfunction in children with allergic rhinitis

Abstract

To assess the state of ventilation of the middle ear in various forms of AR in children and the effectiveness of drug correction. We conducted a comprehensive examination of 100 children with various forms of AR. The examination complex included the analysis of anamnestic data, the clinical picture of the disease, subjective otological symptoms, data from otoscopy, acoustic impedansometry and tonal threshold audiometry. 1. Regardless of the form of AR, every third patient has auditory tube dysfunction, which develops mainly on both sides, is asymptomatic and is not accompanied by otoscopic changes.
