ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES:
It is important to know the current trend of resistance rate and species of pathogens in order to select appropriate antibiotics in the management of chronic suppurative otitis media. The purpose of this study is to investigate the current bacteriology of chronic supprative otitis media. SUBJECTS ANDMETHOD:
A retrospective study was performed on the bacteriologic results of 169 out-patients of chronic otitis media with otorrhea who visited the department of otolaryngology at the Kyung Hee Medical Center from Jan 2000 to Dec 2002.RESULTS:
The most common pathogenic organisms were Staphylococcus, Pseudomonas, Proteus and Providencia. The prevalence of MRSA was found to be 61.0 per cent of isolated Staphylococcus aureus.CONCLUSION:
We investigated the current bacteriology of chronic suppurative otitis media and could not find remarkable changes in comparison with the results reported recently. Continuous and periodic studies on bacteriology and sensitivity tests should be performed for effective treatment of chronic suppurative otitis media.
