Short-Course Oral Steroids Ineffective for Pediatric Otitis Media With Effusion
A short course of oral steroids was not found to significantly improve otitis media with effusion in children.
PCV13 Prevents Acute Otitis Media Caused by S pneumoniae in Children
The 13-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine prevents acute otitis media caused by Streptococcus pneumoniae.
Effect of Pneumococcal Vaccination With PCV10 on All-Cause Acute Otitis Media

Trends of S pneumoniae, H influenzae Antibiotic Resistance in Children
Study analyzed the trends of nasopharyngeal carriage and antibiotic resistance of Streptococcus pneumoniae, Haemophilus influenza, and Moraxella catarrhalis isolated from young children with acute otitis media during a 16-year period.
Can the Influenza Vaccine Prevent Acute Otitis Media?
Vaccination may confer modest reductions in acute otitis media (AOM) and AOM-targeted antibiotic use but use of influenza vaccine as a strategy to reduce AOM is likely unjustified.

A new longitudinal study updates the epidemiology of acute otitis media in the decade after pneumococcal conjugate vaccine introduction.
Tympanogram Results May Guide Appropriate Use of Abx in Acute Otitis Media
Older age and peaked tympanogram are associated with reduced risk of treatment failure in young children with acute otitis media.
Acute Otitis Media Epidemiology Changed With Pneumococcal Vaccines
