Overview
The incidence of otitis externa is high. In Netherlands, it has been estimated at 1200-1400 per 100,000 population per year, and has been shown to affect more than 1% of a sample of the population in the United Kingdom over a 12 month period.[1]
Incidence
- The incidence of otitis externa is usually high:
- The incidence of otitis externa is greater in climates that experience more year-round humidity, increased by a more conducive climate to bacterial and fungal colonization.[4][5]
Prevalence
- A study of otitis externa patients in the United Kingdom revealed that the disease prevailed for 12-months in approximately 24 per 100,000 individuals.[6][7]
