“…Adding our data (and unpublished pilot, n = 20) to the meta-analysis more OMQ-14 total score For the child, parent and professional, the main issue is the impact caused by otitis media with effusion. 38,39 From this consequential perspective, moderate improvement in the total OMQ-14 score is important and encouraging (e.g., in terms of reduced days with hearing difficulty over 3 mo) (Appendix 3). Published data on ear-related quality of life from other trials of otitis media with effusion are currently very sparse.…”

“…[4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11] The Otitis Media Outcome-22 ('OMO-22') questionnaire was another prominent tool. 10,12 These tools were principally discriminated by their number of questions, providing a trade-off between response rate and sensitivity to change (lower in longer tools), versus the collection of what may be important information (easier in longer tools).…”

“…This is emphasised in the otolaryngology literature from the extensive number of tools used for certain conditions; for example, otitis media. [4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14] When assessing a patient-reported outcome measure, it is crucial to review the six key areas of: validity, test-retest reliability, precision, responsiveness, acceptance and response rate, and feasibility. [1][2][3] Regarding validity, one should consider whether the patient-reported outcome measure assesses what it is supposed to.…”

Background:Recently, there has been increased emphasis on the development and application of patient-reported outcome measures. This drive to assess the impact of illness or interventions, from the patient's perspective, has resulted in a greater number of available questionnaires. The importance of selecting an appropriate patient-reported outcome measure is specifically emphasised in the paediatric population. The literature on patient-reported outcome measures used in paediatric otolaryngology was reviewed.Methods:A comprehensive literature search was conducted using the databases Medline, Embase, Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature, and PsycInfo, using the terms: ‘health assessment questionnaire’, ‘structured questionnaire’, ‘questionnaire’, ‘patient reported outcome measures’, ‘PROM’, ‘quality of life’ or ‘survey’, and ‘children’ or ‘otolaryngology’. The search was limited to English-language articles published between 1996 and 2016.Results:The search yielded 656 articles, of which 63 were considered relevant. This included general paediatric patient-reported outcome measures applied to otolaryngology, and paediatric otolaryngology disease-specific patient-reported outcome measures.Conclusion:A large collection of patient-reported outcome measures are described in the paediatric otolaryngology literature. Greater standardisation of the patient-reported outcome measures used in paediatric otolaryngology would assist in pooling of data and increase the validation of tools used.

“…In infants, OME combined with hearing loss may continue for weeks or even months without being detected. A child with OME may also suffer poor sleep quality [15]. Parents of children with CLP should pay particular attention to how their children interact with others and how they react to sound.…”

Designing Strategies for Cleft Lip and Palate Care

The condition of cleft lip/palate (CLP) in children is psychologically stressful for family members and debilitating for the patients themselves. These children must undergo a series of major invasive surgeries following birth, including cleft lip repair surgery, cleft palate repair surgery, bone grafting surgery, and dental implant surgery. Unfortunately, the clinical significance of otitis media with effusion (OME), a complication associated with CLP, is often overlooked, and very few studies have explored this condition in depth. This chapter reviews pathogenesis, clinical manifestations, consequences, examination, and diagnosis related to OME in children with CLP. Controversies surrounding the treatment of OME in CLP children are also discussed. We also provide a flowchart for management guidance in OME in children with CLP.
