Abstract:
Objective:To explore the treatment effects of domestic auricular orthosis on children born with congenital auricular deformity.
Methods:Children born with congenital auricle deformity were treated by "Yi Er" auricle orthosis, included 42 ears of 29 cases.These children were divided into three groups according to the birth age. The age less than 7 days was divided into group 1, 7-42 days for group 2, and more than 42 days for group 3. Compare the therapeutic effect of children in different ages.
Results:The therapeutic effect was divided into three grades: markedly effective and cured (basically return to normal appearance); effective (improved, but not reached the normal appearance); invalid (no improvement after treatment). The markedly effective and cured rate in group 1, group 2 and group 3 were 100%, 85.7% and 45.0%, the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05), and the average correction time was(20.75±6.50)d, (32.64±15.40)d, (48.23±17.32) d, the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).
Conclusions:The domestic auricle orthosis has a significant effect on the correction of children born with congenital auricular deformity. The better treatment effect and the shorter wearing time can be acquired in the early correction.
