This Project Grant award of $179,919, provided by the National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders (NIDCD) under CFDA Program 93.173 "Research Related to Deafness and Communication Disorders", will support Dr. Kavita Dedhia's research on the effectiveness of adjuvant adenoidectomy in the surgical management of otitis media.

The key objectives are to: 1) Evaluate the effectiveness of adjuvant adenoidectomy and identify heterogeneity of treatment effects based on age and medical conditions at risk for developmental delay, using data from the PEDSnet learning health system network of 11 pediatric institutions across the U.S.; and 2) Conduct a prospective cohort study at the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP) to assess patient and environmental factors not available in the PEDSnet dataset, to further evaluate the effectiveness of adjuvant adenoidectomy. This work aims to generate robust evidence to optimize surgical management of otitis media, a common pediatric condition, and improve patient-centered outcomes.
