Overview: Fluid in the middle ear, or otitis media with effusion (OME), is common in children with upper respiratory infections and typically resolves without treatment. Most guidelines do not recommend antibiotics for treatment; however, they are often prescribed, and the persistence of effusion can cause a significant impact on quality of life. Join us as we discuss recent review findings on antibiotics in OME treatment and the potential impact on your practice.
