Abstract

Chronic Suppurative Otitis Media (CSOM) is a middle ear infection characterized by perforation of the tympanic membrane and persistent otorrhea lasting for more than two months. Local epidemiological data on CSOM in Kota Palopo, particularly from hospital-based settings, remain limited. Therefore, this study aims to describe the epidemiological and clinical characteristics of CSOM patients in a regional hospital setting where local data are still limited, focusing on factors such as gender, age, main complaints, CSOM type, and perforation location. A descriptive quantitative method with a cross-sectional design was used, collecting data from medical records of patients diagnosed with CSOM from January to June 2023 (n = 40). The results showed that the majority of patients were aged 19–60 years, with otorrhea as the most common complaint and benign CSOM type. Most patients had perforation at the pars tensa, while perforations at the pars flaccida and marginal locations were less common but posed a higher risk of severe complications. This study provides preliminary descriptive data on the characteristics of CSOM patients at RSU St. Madyang Kota Palopo. These findings may serve as a baseline for future research and local prevention efforts.
