Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Pathogen eradication in patients with acute otitis media (AOM) is associated with a reduced risk of clinical failures, but most children in whom middle ear fluid (MEF) culture remains positive show clinical improvement or clinical cure. We investigated the relationship between MEF culture-positivity during treatment in patients with clinical improvement/cure, and the occurrence of subsequent AOM....
