Tympanic tube placement surgery can be performed under either general anesthesia or local anesthesia, depending on age and physical condition. For children, general anesthesia is used, while adults mostly use local anesthesia. Tympanic tube placement is suitable for chronic secretory otitis media, after tympanotomy and other treatments are ineffective; middle ear effusion thick or glue ear; hearing normal children under 3 years of age, the effusion persists for 3 months or binaural hearing loss of up to 40dB, delayed speech development, or tympanic membrane structural anomalies. Children are anesthetized with general anesthesia, and adults are most often anesthetized with local anesthesia, but general anesthesia is also feasible for patients who are overstimulated by adults. This procedure lasts a relatively short time, mostly within a few minutes, and the anesthesia time will be relatively short, but various anesthetic risks still exist.
