Implication

This multicenter study finds a significant link between sensorineural hearing loss and chronic otitis media features, suggesting intervention importance.

Key Points

A significant moderate positive correlation exists between duration of chronic otitis media and sensorineural hearing loss.
Patients with subtotal tympanic membrane perforations demonstrated the highest mean sensorineural hearing loss at 37.1 dB.
Most patients were aged between 12 and 30 years, with ear discharge and hearing loss being the most common symptoms.
Early intervention is crucial as prolonged chronic otitis media and certain perforation types lead to greater hearing loss.
