A 2 year old toddler has hearing loss caused by recurrent otitis media. which treatment would the nurse anticipate that the practitioner will recommend?

Respuesta :

The treatment that should be anticipated for the toddler having hearing loss caused by recurrent otitis media is myringotomy.

Myringotomy is the surgical procedure of creating a hole in the ear drum (tympanic membrane). This is done to open the passage so that the fluid stuck in the middle ear can be drained out. A tube may also be inserted inside to help in the drainage of the fluid.

Otitis media is the infection of the middle ear. It occurs due to the fluid being stuck in the middle ear. It can occur due to respiratory infection, sore throat or cold and cough. Abrupt swelling and redness occurs in the middle ear. In  severe cases, it can also lead to hearing loss.
