Abstract

Acute otitis media (AOM) is an infection of the middle ear and is the second most common pediatric diagnosis following upper respiratory infections. This article provides a review of the latest evidence on risk factors, diagnosis, management, and prevention of acute otitis media. Acute otitis media is a symptomatic disease with natural healing. Antibiotics should only be given in selective conditions. Myringotomy with the placement of ventilation tubes is the most common first-line surgical option for a child with recurrent or persistent AOM.
