The aim of this study is to evaluate eustachian tube functions and the middle-ear RF of players of wind instruments. &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Methods:&lt;\/i&gt;&lt;\/b&gt; In this prospective case-control clinical study, a study group of 28 players of wind instruments in the orchestra (28 participants, 56 ears) and a control group of 34 volunteers (34 participants, 68 ears) were included. The eustachian function of wind instrument players in a symphony orchestra was measured using an automatic eustachian tube function test in acoustic tympanometry and the RF of the middle ear was determined in multifrequency tympanometry. &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Results:&lt;\/i&gt;&lt;\/b&gt; There was a statistically significant difference among the musicians, especially in players of woodwind instruments, in terms of dysfunction of the eustachian tubes (&lt;i&gt;p&lt;\/i&gt; = 0.048). In the musicians, the pre- and postperformance RF mean values for all ears were 925 and 1,020 Hz, respectively, and these were significantly different (&lt;i&gt;p&lt;\/i&gt; = 0.004). &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Conclusion:&lt;\/i&gt;&lt;\/b&gt; This is the first study to uses multifrequency tympanometry to examine the middle-ear RF and eustachian tube function of wind instrument musicians in an orchestra. Eustachian tube dysfunction was found to be more prominent and a higher RF of the middle ear was seen after a performance, especially in players of wood wind instruments. However, the effect of these on the professional performance of players of wind instruments should be investigated in future work. <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1159\/000517064","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,8,19]],"date-time":"2021-08-19T21:00:45Z","timestamp":1629406845000},"page":"586-594","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Middle-Ear Resonance Frequency and Eustachian Tube Function in Players of Wind Instruments"],"prefix":"10.1159","volume":"73","author":[{"given":"Fulya","family":"Ozer","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Cem","family":"Ozer","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Seyra","family":"Erbek","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Levent\u00a0N.","family":"Ozluoglu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"127","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,8,19]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.5455\/msm.2018.30.204-208"},{"key":"ref2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.21091\/mppa.2015.1007"},{"key":"ref3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1597\/11-181"},{"key":"ref4","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/MAO.0000000000001841"},{"key":"ref5","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s00405-008-0705-x"},{"key":"ref6","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s12070-011-0470-9"},{"key":"ref7","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/lary.23223"},{"key":"ref8","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3109\/00206098609078381"},{"key":"ref9","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.5152\/iao.2017.3624"},{"key":"ref10","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.21091\/mppa.2010.4037"},{"key":"ref11","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/MAO.0000000000001375"},{"key":"ref12","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/coa.12428"},{"key":"ref13","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.wjorl.2019.08.002"},{"key":"ref14","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.7162\/S1809-97772012000200006"},{"key":"ref15","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3109\/00206097709071839"},{"key":"ref16","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/SCS.0000000000003532"},{"key":"ref17","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/MAO.0000000000000604"},{"key":"ref18","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/IJG.0000000000000747"},{"key":"ref19","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1121\/1.400719"}],"container-title":["Folia Phoniatrica et Logopaedica"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/www.karger.com\/Article\/Pdf\/517064","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/www.karger.com\/Article\/Pdf\/517064","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2025,4,23]],"date-time":"2025-04-23T15:01:38Z","timestamp":1745420498000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/karger.com\/article\/doi\/10.1159\/000517064"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2021]]},"references-count":19,"journal-issue":{"issue":"6","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,12,8]]},"published-print":{"date-parts":[[2022,3,8]]}},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1159\/000517064","archive":["Portico"],"relation":{},"ISSN":["1021-7762","1421-9972"],"issn-type":[{"type":"print","value":"1021-7762"},{"type":"electronic","value":"1421-9972"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2021]]}}}
