Abstract
AbstractIn a pilot controlled randomised trial of 38 children who had bilateral secretory otitis media, with effusion demonstrated at operation, we compared the efficacy of a six-week course of an oral decongestant—antihistamine combination and a mucolytic preparation with a control group in preventing the presence of middle-ear effusion six weeks after myringotomy and adenoidectomy. The mucolytic preparation decreased the presence of middle-ear effusion when compared to the decongestant-antihistamine combination and the control group (p=0.06).
