Early Postoperative Fever in Pediatric Patients undergoing Cochlear Implant Surgery

Abstract

Early Post-Operative Fever after cochlear Implant surgery is not uncommon.

We assessed all pediatric patients undergoing cochlear implants and addressed the patients with post-operative fever.

A hundred and thirty surgeries were performed; of all patients 25 developed early postoperative fever.

The workup did not identify the cause of fever in any of the patients. Fever resolved without any additional Intervention.

There was no difference in fever or infection rate in patients that received prophylactic antibiotic, whether prolonged (one week) versus or only perioperative treatment (one day).
