Abstract

Foreign bodies in the ears, nose, and throat are one of the most common cases in the otolaryngology emergency unit in a hospital. Delays in treatment can lead to increased morbidity and mortality. This study aims to determine the characteristics of patients with foreign bodies in the ears, nose, and throat is a retrospective and cross-sectional study, conducted in Hasan Sadikin General Hospital Bandung. The data obtained by total sampling from medical record data of patients with a foreign body diagnosis in the inpatient room and emergency room at Hasan Sadikin Bandung General Hospital for the period January 2020–December 2021 were included. Out of 342 patients, the largest age group was 2-10 years (52.2%) and male (54.9%) is the most common gender. The most common complaint in patients with foreign bodies is nasal congestion (28.6%) and the nose (33%) is the most common location for foreign bodies.
