Acute otitis media (AOM) is one of the most commonly diagnosed problems by primary care providers. Diagnosis of AOM is based upon positive physical findings of a full or bulging tympanic membrane (TM), absent or obscured bony landmarks, distorted or absent light reflex, and decreased or absent mobility of the TM. Prevention through education and early detection of AOM are the best methods for avoiding serious complications and sequelae. The antibiotics available for treatment of AOM are extensive. Treatment of AOM should be based upon clinical diagnosis and current research-based options for treatment.
急性中耳炎（AOM）是初级保健提供者最常诊断出的问题之一。AOM的诊断基于鼓膜（TM）饱满或膨出、骨质标志不清或消失、光反射扭曲或消失以及TM活动度降低或消失等阳性体格检查结果。通过教育和早期发现AOM进行预防是避免严重并发症和后遗症的最佳方法。可用于治疗AOM的抗生素种类繁多。AOM的治疗应基于临床诊断和当前基于研究的治疗选择。
