Abstract

Objective: Balloon dilation of Eustachian tube (BDET) has been widely used as a minimally invasive treatment for obstructive Eustachian tube dysfunction (ETD). We used a Delphi consensus methodology to explore recommendations for clinical management of BDET in obstructive ETD.

Procedure: A Delphi panel of 26 expert physicians of otology participated in two rounds of anonymous, iterative questionnaires. Consensus is defined as ≥ 70% of panelists agree with recommendation and disagreement as < 70% agree. The responses from the Delphi study were analyzed using both the content validity ratio and Kendall's coefficient of concordance.

Results: The panel finally evaluated 26 topics, agreed 9 and did not reach consensus on 17 topics after 2 rounds. Although no consensus was reached on the postoperative follow-up period, a period of 12 months was most adopted. The Valsalva maneuver and questionnaire responses showed the highest agreement as postoperative assessment tools after BDET.

Conclusion: Consensus was reached on some of the recommendations for the management of BEDT in obstructive ETD. The resultant agreement will provide directions for future research to describe standard postoperative management of BDET.

共识声明：咽鼓管球囊扩张术后管理。

目的：咽鼓管球囊扩张术（BDET）作为一种微创治疗方法，已被广泛应用于阻塞性咽鼓管功能障碍（ETD）的治疗。我们采用德尔菲共识法探讨了阻塞性咽鼓管功能障碍 BDET 的临床管理建议：由 26 位耳科专家组成的德尔菲小组参与了两轮匿名反复问卷调查。共识的定义是≥70%的专家小组成员同意建议，不同意的定义是<70%的专家小组成员同意建议。德尔菲研究采用内容效度比和肯德尔一致系数对回答进行了分析：经过两轮讨论，小组最终对 26 个主题进行了评估，同意 9 个主题，未就 17 个主题达成共识。虽然对术后随访期未达成共识，但大多数人都认为随访期为 12 个月。作为 BDET 术后评估工具，Valsalva 动作和问卷回答的一致性最高：结论：就阻塞性 ETD 的 BEDT 管理建议达成了共识。结论：就阻塞性 ETD 的 BEDT 管理的一些建议达成了共识，这些共识将为今后描述 BDET 术后标准管理的研究提供方向。
