Filter by:This was a pilot study to determine the safety and effectiveness of a twice daily, seven-day dosing regimen in acute, pediatric, otitis media in children with tympanostomy tubes. The currently approved regimen is twice daily for 10 days.
Describe the patient population and bacterial microbiology of pediatric patients presenting with spontaneous draining acute otitis media
Accumulation of cerumen in the external ear canal is a common problem. The presence of cerumen not only interferes with the clinician's view of the tympanic membrane, but may also result in hearing loss and vertigo, and may predispose to ear infections. Removal of cerumen is facilitated by the use of a variety of ceruminolytics, or wax solvents. The current study was designed to evaluate the ceruminolytic effects of a single, brief application of the two most frequently used products in the investigators area, containing chlorobutanol or potassium carbonate with or without irrigation in the primary care setting in a randomized, single-blind trial. To our knowledge, this is the first randomized study comparing ceruminolytics with chlorobutanol versus potassium carbonate.
The purpose of this study is to determine if an otic formulation is safe and effective for the treatment of acute otitis externa (AOE).
This study will compare Eustachian tube function (ETF) testing in adults with intact tympanic membranes (TM) using a pressure chamber to that obtained using standard methods requiring a non-intact TM.
This study was designed to evaluate the efficacy of the herb Echinacea purpurea and of cranial osteopathic manipulative treatment to prevent otitis media (middle ear infections) in young children.
A randomized controlled clinical trial to examine effects of intranasal dexmedetomidine, an α2-adrenorecptor agonist, on pain control and agitation in children undergoing BMT.
To evaluate the safety and efficacy of cefdinir oral suspension in children between 6 months and 4 years of age, with acute otitis media, who are at risk of persistent or recurrent otitis media.
To compare the safety and efficacy of cefdinir oral suspension, 7 mg/kg every 12 hours for 5 days, to azithromycin oral suspension 10 mg/kg/day (Day 1) then 5 mg/kg/day (Days 2-5) for a total of 5 days, in children between 6 months and 6 years of age, with AOM.
The primary objective is to compare the safety and efficacy of cefdinir oral suspension, 7 mg/kg/day ql2hrs for 5 days, to amoxicillin/clavulanate oral suspension 45 mg/kg/day (based on amoxicillin component), in divided doses, q12h for 10 days, in children between 6 months and 6 years of age, with AOM.
