Association of Diet Patterns and Post-Operative Tympanostomy Tube Otorrhea: A Pilot Study.

Objective: The objective of this study was to explore diet patterns in children with tympanostomy tube placement (TTP) complicated by postoperative tympanostomy tube otorrhea.

Study Design: Cross-sectional survey and retrospective cohort study.

Methods: Caregivers of children (0-12 years old), at a tertiary-care pediatric hospital who underwent TTP within 6 months to 2 years prior to enrollment were included.

High-Dose Celecoxib for Pain After Pediatric Tonsillectomy: A Randomized Controlled Trial.

Objective: Pediatric tonsillectomy causes significant postoperative pain. Newer nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs such as celecoxib control pain without increasing bleeding risk, but in prior studies provided only modest pain reduction at standard doses. We aimed to determine if high-dose celecoxib (double the usual pediatric dose) is effective for pain, without increasing bleeding or other risks.
