What is otitis media?

Definitions
Otitis media is an infection or inflation (inflation: Inflammation) the middle ear. The middle ear is the area bounded by the outside world by the ear drum. This area connects the sound with a hearing in the inner ear. Also in this area there is a line "eustachian" that connects the middle ear to the back of the nasal cavity and upper throat.

Use of this channel are:
1. Maintain the balance of air pressure in the ear and adjust air pressure in the outside world
2. Drain the mucus produced fewer cells lining the middle ear to the back of the nose.

Cause
The cause of acute otitis media may be a virus or bacteri1. In 25% of cases and sometimes infect the middle ear with the bacteri1. Virus / bacteria that commonly cause otitis media are Streptococcus pneumoniae. Followed by Haemophilus influenzae and Moraxella caltarhalis. To remember the otits media, although most cases are caused by bacteria, only a few cases requiring antibiotics. This is possible because no antibiotic was eustachius channel will be open again so that the bacteria will be eliminated with the flow of mucus.

Why are children more susceptible to otitis media?
Children more susceptible to otitis media as compared to adults:
1. Child's immune system is still in development
2. Eustachius tract in children is more straight and shorter horizontally so that the ARI is more easily spread ketelinga middle.
3. Adenoids (adenoids salahs atu ditenggorokkan upper organ that plays a role in the immune system) is relatively larger in children than adults. Adenoid position adjacent to the mouth of the eustachian channel. In addition adenoid itself can be infected when the infection then spreads to the middle ear through the channel uestachius.

Diagnosis
OMA diagnosis must meet three of the following:
1. Disease appear suddenly (acute)
2. The discovery marks lefusi elasi: sector in body cavity fluid collection) the middle ear. Effusion demonstrated the presence of either one of the following signs:
- Mengembungkan eardrum
- Limited / absence of movement of the eardrum
- The shadow of fluid behind the eardrum
- Fluid out of the ear.
3. Signs / symptoms of middle ear inflammation, as evidenced by the presence of either one of the following signs:
- Redness of the eardrum
- Ear pain that interferes with sleep and normal activity

Symptoms and signs of Otitis media
1. Ear pain, fever, irritability
2. Middle ear effusion
3. Eardrum bleak
4. Mengembung eardrum
5. Reduced drum movement
6. Decreased hearing

Symptoms and signs of otitis media with effusion:
1. Middle ear effusion
2. Eardrum bleak
3. Reduced drum movement
4. Decreased hearing

Handling
1. Antibiotics
OMA is a disease that will usually heal by itself. Approximately 80% of OMA cured in 3 days without antibiotics. The use of antibiotics does not reduce the complications that can occur, including decreased hearing.
Observations can be done in most cases. If symptoms do not improve within 48-72 hours or no change in symptoms, antibiotics are given
The definition of mild symptoms are mild ear pain and fever <39oC in 24 hours. While the symptoms are severe ear pain is severe or fever-39 oC.
Antibiotics on the OMA will result in improvement of symptoms within 48-72 hours. In the first 24 hours occurred within 24 hours of stabilization are both taking place improvements. If the patient does not improve within 48-72 hours, there may be other diseases or treatment provided is not adequate.
In this case such as this, antibiotics are considered:
- In patients with severe symptoms or OMA is probably caused by Haemophilus influenzae in moraxalle catarrhalis, which are then selected antibiotic is amecixillin clavumate. Another source states granting clavulanate amoxixillin do if symptoms do not improve in 7 days re-emerged in 14 days.
- If the patient's allergies can be mild to amocixillin caphalosphorin such as cefdinir, loracarbef, or cefuroxime.
- In the severe allergy to amocixillin, the money given is azithormycin or clarithornycin.

2. Analgesia / pain reliever
Besides antibiotics, treatment should be accompanied OMA pain (analgesia). Analgesia is generally used on simple analgesia such as paracetamol or ibuprofen can aggravate the digestive tract irritation.
Other:
1. Provision of other drugs: as anthihistamin (allergy) or dekongestyan not provide benefits for children.
2. Corticosteroids is not recommended
3. Myrongitomy
4. Giving antibiotics as prophylaxis to prevent recurrence of the OMA does not have sufficient evidence
Prevention
Some of this seems to reduce the risk of OMA
1. And prevention of ARI in children bayui
2. Breastfeeding for at least 6 months
3. Prevention of child-feeding while lying down dibotol
4. And avoidance of tobacco smoke exposure

Complications
Chronic otitis media is characterized circuitry in a history of chronic discharge from one or two ears. If the eardrum has been ruptured for more than 2 weeks, the risk of infection has become very common. Generally, the handling is done is wash and dry ears for several weeks until the liquid is no longer out.
Otitis media is not treated it can spread to tissues surrounding the middle ear, including the brain. But these complications are generally rare. One is mastoiditis in 1 in 1000 children who were not treated OMA circuitry.

Diagnosis appears:
1. Acute pain related to the agent bioloti
2. Sleep disorders associated with pain agent
3. Hyperthermia associated with disease or trauma
4. Anxiety related to health status.
