摘要：Objective:To observe whether the EarWell infant ear correction system makes any difference in terms of the treatment effect,duration,complication rate,and nursing care requirements in different types of infant auricle deformities.
Methods:A total of 93 infant patients with auricular deformity(age:<3 months of age)who were diagnosed and treated in Guangzhou Children and Women's Medical Center from April 2018 to September 2020 were selected and treated with the EarWell infant ear correction system.We observed and recorded the effects of the EarWell infant ear correction system,the treatment duration,the number of rebound cases,and complications that are likely to occur during treatment,and noted the related factors causing complications and the relative requirements for nursing care.
Results:The Earwell infant ear correction system could effectively correct infant auricle deformities.Among the 93 cases,90 cases had positive therapeutical outcome and the effective rate was 96.77％.The treatment duration for lop ear and protruding ear was longer than for other auricle deformities;the deformity recoil and the treatment compilation rates were much higher for these 2 deformity types,and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).
Conclusions:The treatment suggestion for the wearing duration of the EarWell infant ear correction system for lop ear and protruding ear is a prolonged duration compared with that for other infant auricle deformities.Further,the requirements for nursing care intensity and infant patient's guardian's nursing knowledge and skill are obviously increased for these 2 types of auricle deformities.
