In many, peritonsillar abscess represented an acute episode on a background of chronic throat problems. For optimal management, notably the place and timing of tonsillectomy, this impact should be taken into account. The adult tonsil outcome inventory is an ideal tool for use in clinical practice.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1017\/s0022215113003071","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2013,11,20]],"date-time":"2013-11-20T05:28:35Z","timestamp":1384925315000},"page":"1190-1193","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":5,"title":["Throat-related quality of life in peritonsillar abscess sufferers: application of the adult tonsil outcome inventory"],"prefix":"10.1017","volume":"127","author":[{"given":"J","family":"Powell","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"E L","family":"Powell","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"K","family":"Conroy","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"C","family":"Hopkins","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"J W","family":"Moor","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"J A","family":"Wilson","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"56","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2013,11,20]]},"reference":[{"key":"S0022215113003071_ref8","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s00405-012-2095-3"},{"key":"S0022215113003071_ref7","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.otohns.2007.08.015"},{"key":"S0022215113003071_ref6","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1017\/S0022215108002600"},{"key":"S0022215113003071_ref4","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.amjoto.2008.12.003"},{"key":"S0022215113003071_ref3","first-page":"45","article-title":"Use of antibiotics for sore throat and incidence of quinsy","volume":"57","author":"Dunn","year":"2007","journal-title":"Br J Gen Pract"},{"key":"S0022215113003071_ref2","first-page":"16","article-title":"Peritonsillar infection in Christchurch 2006-2008: epidemiology and microbiology","volume":"24","author":"Love","year":"2011","journal-title":"N Z Med J"},{"key":"S0022215113003071_ref10","article-title":"Use of the tonsil outcome inventory in adults undergoing elective tonsillectomy \u2013 a prospective study","volume":"37","author":"Erskine","year":"2012","journal-title":"Clin Otolaryngol"},{"key":"S0022215113003071_ref9","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s00106-012-2545-7"},{"key":"S0022215113003071_ref5","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s00405-011-1807-4"},{"key":"S0022215113003071_ref1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1749-4486.2012.02452.x"}],"container-title":["The Journal of Laryngology &amp; Otology"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/www.cambridge.org\/core\/services\/aop-cambridge-core\/content\/view\/S0022215113003071","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2019,4,22]],"date-time":"2019-04-22T22:20:49Z","timestamp":1555971649000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/www.cambridge.org\/core\/product\/identifier\/S0022215113003071\/type\/journal_article"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2013,11,20]]},"references-count":10,"journal-issue":{"issue":"12","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2013,12]]}},"alternative-id":["S0022215113003071"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1017\/s0022215113003071","relation":{},"ISSN":["0022-2151","1748-5460"],"issn-type":[{"value":"0022-2151","type":"print"},{"value":"1748-5460","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2013,11,20]]}}}
