MODERN UNDERSTANDINGS OF THE ORIGINS AND MANAGEMENT OF ONGOING PURULENT EAR INFECTIONS (CHRONIC SUPPURATIVE OTITIS MEDIA)
Journal Title: International scientific journal Science and Innovation - Year 2024, Vol 3, Issue 9
Abstract
Otitis media (OM) is basically a kind of swelling in the middle ear that is usually linked to an infection. Even with proper treatment, acute OM (AOM) might, unfortunately, turn into chronic suppurative OM (CSOM), which often involves a tear in the ear drum and some nasty discharge. This fluid tends to block the tiny bones in the middle ear from sending sound waves from the ear drum to the oval window of your inner ear correctly, which more or less results in conductive hearing loss. Plus, it is pretty common for the inflammatory substances created during CSOM to actually seep into your inner ear through something called the round window. This can, more or less, lead to the destruction of hair cells in the cochlea, resulting in sensorineural hearing loss. Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Staphylococcus aureus are typically the main culprits that often cause CSOM. Although, as a matter of fact, the pathogenesis of AOM is thoroughly examined, there is very limited research available regarding CSOM. With antibiotic resistance emerging (in some respects) alongside the ototoxicity of antibiotics and potential surgical risks, there is an urgent need to create effective treatment strategies against CSOM. This means it is crucial to understand how host immunity works in cases of CSOM and how these bacteria dodge such potent immune responses. Figuring out the molecular pathways leading to CSOM will aid in developing new treatments for the disease and might be able to prevent hearing loss.
