After the Boston Marathon bombings, more than 100 patients were evaluated for blast-related ear injuries, according to Massachusetts Eye and Ear. Ninety-four of those injured individuals elected to enroll in a prospective cohort, eight-institution study through Harvard Catalyst that began just after the bombings in April 2013. Alicia Quesnel, instructor in otology and laryngology at Massachusetts Eye and Ear, is the study’s senior author. Aaron Kyle Remenschneider, clinical fellow in otology and laryngology at Massachusetts Eye and Ear, is mentioned.
