Overview
Key Findings in Otoscopy in Otitis Media
- Otoscopic examination of the ears may reveal the following signs indicative of otitis media:[1]
- Erythema of the middle ear.
- Presence of effusion.[2]
- Bulging of the tympanic membrane in otitis media with effusion.
- Cloudy appearance of the tympanic membrane.
- Immobility of the tympanic membrane.
- Tympanic membrane perforation.
Key Findings in Tympanometry in Otitis Media
- Tympanometry may reveal hearing loss due to effusion, as measured by abnormally large reflection of sound due to elevated pressure from fluid buildup.[2]
