Research
My research focuses on acute labyrinthitis, a rare but serious complication of acute otitis media that can result in permanent hearing and vestibular impairment.
In my PhD project, I investigate the epidemiology, risk factors, and long-term outcomes of acute labyrinthitis, with a particular focus on hearing and vestibular function. The aim is to identify predictors of permanent inner ear damage and thereby contribute to improved diagnosis, treatment, and follow-up of patients with acute labyrinthitis.
