Abstract

Background: Adenoid hypertrophy is one of the most common disorders in children which may lead to upper airway obstruction. Various modalities to measure airway obstruction in patients with adenoid hypertrophy, including true lateral radiographs, nasoendoscopy, and rhinomanometry are available; however, the results from different studies are still controversial. This study aimed to determine the relationship between the results of rhinomanometry and the true lateral radiographs to the degree of upper airway obstruction in patients with adenoid hypertrophy. Methods: This cross-sectional study included a total of 33 patients with adenoid hypertrophy aged 5-18 years using a purposive sampling technique. Patients diagnosed with adenoid hypertrophy were subjected to a true lateral examination using lateral neck radiographs to measure the degree of airway obstruction. Subsequently, an active anterior rhinomanometry was performed by measuring resistance and nasal airflow and then measuring the degree of airway obstruction. Data analysis was done using Chi-Square test. Results: The rhinomanometric nasal resistance in the inspiratory phase was 0.4159 ± 0.15201 Pa/cm3/s and 0.3694 ± 0.13717 Pa/cm3/s in the expiration phase. The results showed a significant relationship between the true lateral radiographs and both nasal inspiratory (p=0.005) and expiratory resistance (p=0.004). Similarly, the relationship between the true lateral radiographs and nasal airflow on both inspiratory and expiratory rhinomanometry was significant (p<0.05). Conclusion: Rhinomanometric measurements can be used as an additional objective examination in assessing the degree of upper airway obstruction in patients with adenoid hypertrophy prior to surgery.

Abstract

Introduction: Globally, the cases of otitis externa were increased, followed by the incidence of antimicrobial resistance. Several factors, such as untrained medical health personnel and unprescribed antibiotics, are thought to play a major role in this phenomenon. This study aims to determine the bacterial patterns and antimicrobial sensitivity in otitis externa patients in Makassar, South Sulawesi, Indonesia. Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted from November 2020 to February 2021 at Dr. Wahidin Sudirohusodo and Health Laboratory Center, Makassar, South Sulawesi, Indonesia. There were in total 33 subjects with otitis externa participating in this study. The secretion from the outer ear canal was taken and cultured using Mac Conkey agar for bacteriological examination and Vitek 2 for antimicrobial sensitivity. This study assessed age, sex, and type of otitis externa. All data analyses used SPSS version 26.00 (IBM Corp., Armonk, New York). Bacteria patterns and otitis externa were analyzed using the Fisher test. Results: Fourteen cases (42.4%) were caused by Pseudomonas Aeruginosa. Most Gram-negative bacteria were sensitive to ciprofloxacin, gentamicin, amikacin, and meropenem. Staphylococcus haemolyticus, Staphylococcus capitis, and Staphylococcus epidermidis were the most resistant Gram-positive bacteria. Aerobic bacteria in otitis externa were sensitive to antimicrobials (p<0.023). Conclusion: Gram-negative aerobic bacteria were common causes of otitis externa, with Pseudomonas aeruginosa being the most common isolated bacteria. Ciprofloxacin, gentamicin, amikacin, and meropenem were sensitive antimicrobials for otitis externa.
