目的:研究Earwell耳矫正模型对小儿先天性耳廓畸形的近期应用效果。方法:耳廓畸形患儿38例(42耳),出生年龄7~176d,平均62.40d,根据年龄大小分为<28d组(1组)、28~90d组(2组)及>90d组(3组)。采用美国Earwell耳矫正模型进行矫正。结果:将耳廓形态矫正的情况分为优(同正常耳)、良(基本正常)及差(轻微改善或无变化)。采用美国Earwell耳矫正装置后,1、2、3组结果评估为优者分别占100.00%、89.47%和72.73%,平均矫正时间分别为16.75d、26.26d和38.91d,并发症发生率分别是0、73.68%和100.00%。结论:Earwell耳矫正模型对小儿先天性耳廓畸形的矫正效果显著,越早治疗效果越好,所需的矫正时间越短,并发症的发生率也越低。 Objective: To study the short-term effect of Earwell ear correction model on congenital auricular deformity in children. Methods: A total of 38 cases (42 ears) of auricular deformity were enrolled in this study. The age of birth was from 7 to 176 days (mean 62.40 days). The patients were divided into two groups according to their age: <28d group, 28-90d group and> 90d group 3 groups). The United States Earwell ear correction model for correction. Results: The auricle shape correction of the situation is divided into excellent (with normal ears), good (basically normal) and poor (slight improvement or no change). The results of 1, 2 and 3 groups were 100.00%, 89.47% and 72.73%, respectively. The mean correction time was 16.75d, 26.26d and 38.91d respectively. The complication rates were 0,73.68% and 100.00%. Conclusion: The Earwell orthotic correction model has a significant effect on congenital auricular deformity in children. The earlier the treatment effect is, the shorter the correction time is needed and the lower the incidence of complications.
