A 12-month study of the incidence of acute otitis media in children under three years of age in an urban practice of 10 000 patients showed that acute otitis media accounted for one in 10 of all episodes of illness presented. In contrast to findings in Scandinavia and the USA the incidence of acute otitis media in the first year of life (11.5%) was lower than in the second year (28.6%). The study included a number of children in their third year and the incidence in this group was higher still (30.8%).The problems of defining acceptable diagnostic criteria for acute otitis media, and the relation of these diagnostic criteria to the differences in our results compared with previous studies are discussed.
一项针对10000名患者的城市医疗实践中3岁以下儿童急性中耳炎发病率的为期12个月的研究表明，急性中耳炎占所有就诊疾病发作的十分之一。与斯堪的纳维亚半岛和美国的研究结果相反，一岁儿童急性中耳炎的发病率（11.5%）低于两岁儿童（28.6%）。该研究纳入了一些三岁儿童，这组儿童的发病率更高（30.8%）。文中讨论了确定急性中耳炎可接受诊断标准的问题，以及这些诊断标准与我们的结果和以往研究差异之间的关系。
