Abstract

Aim: In this study, it is aimed to determine the frequency of chronic otitis media (COM) in schizophrenic patients, and to examine whether there is a correlation between schizophrenia and COM. Methods: We assessed 97 patients who were being monitored with the diagnosis of schizophrenia, according to DSM-IV, and were receiving outpatient care in a center specialized on the treatment of schizophrenia. The fndings were compared with the fndings of 96 subjects in the control group, consisting of healthy individuals without psychiatric conditions. In addition, the Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS) and the Edinburgh Handedness Inventory (EHI) were administered to patients with schizophrenia and the EHI was applied to the controls. Results: No statistically signifcant difference in the frequency of COM was determined between schizophrenia and control groups (p=0.3). Likewise, no signifcant difference was found with respect to the frequency of right COM (p=0.2) and left COM (p=0.9) between schizophrenia and control groups. Conclusion: Our hypothesis concerning the possible correlation between schizophrenia and COM or possible greater incidence of COM in schizophrenia patients, has not been confrmed with this study.

Özet

Amaç: Bu çalışmada, şizofreni hastalarında kronik otitis media (KOM) sıklığının belirlenmesi ve şizofreni ile KOM arasında bir ilişki olup olmadığının araştırılması hedefenmiştir. Yöntemler: Şizofreni tedavisi alanında özelleşmiş bir merkezde ayaktan tedavi gören, DSM-IV’e göre şizofreni tanısı almış 97 hasta değerlendirildi. Bulgular, herhangi bir psikiyatrik hastalığı bulunmayan sağlıklı bireylerden oluşan 96 kişilik kontrol gurubunun bulgularıyla karşılaştırıldı. Hasta ve kontrol grubuna Pozitif ve Negatif Sendrom Ölçeği (PANSS) ve Edinburg El Tercih testi uygulandı. Bulgular: Hasta ve kontrol grubu arasında KOM sıklığı açısından istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir fark saptanmadı. Aynı şekilde hasta ve kontrol grupları arasında sağ KOM ve sol KOM sıklığı açısından anlamlı bir fark bulunamadı. Sonuç: Şizofreni ve KOM arasında bir ilişki bulunabileceğine ya da şizofreni hastalarında daha sık KOM bulunacağına ilişkin hipotezimiz bu çalışmayla geçersiz kılınmıştır.
