OBJECTIVE To review the 2004 treatment guidelines provided by the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) and the American Academy of Family Physicians (AAFP) regarding the treatment of otitis media in pediatric patients. DATA SOURCES A MEDLINE search, restricted to English-language articles about pediatric patients, was conducted (1966–May 2005) using the key words acute otitis media (AOM), guideline, observation therapy, and vaccination. Additional references were located through review of the bibliographies of cited articles. STUDY SELECTION AND DATA EXTRACTION Studies related to the fundamental basis of the updated guidelines and articles addressing current issues related to otitis media infection were included. DATA SYNTHESIS Otitis media affects many children in the US. Concerns have been raised about the proper treatment of AOM in the face of increasing drug resistance among primary pathogens responsible for infection. Some countries have chosen to observe patients for a designated period of time prior to initiation of antibiotic therapy. The AAP and AAFP have updated the treatment guidelines for otitis media to include the option of observation therapy, recommendations for dosing of various antibiotic regimens and their place in therapy, and the importance of initial pain management. CONCLUSIONS Updated treatment guidelines for otitis media have been developed in an effort to properly treat children while decreasing current resistance rates for common organisms that cause AOM. In the future, the therapeutic outcomes of observation therapy related to both the incidence of drug resistance and the possibility of increased complications related to otitis media will need to be evaluated in the US.

In 1972 the American Academy of Pediatrics stated that the purview of pediatrics begins in the period prior to birth when conception is apparent and continues to age 21 years. The Committee on Adolescence believes that the terminology used in all Academy materials should be changed to reflect the pediatrician's expanded role. The words "infant," "child," "adolescent," and "young adult" connote different images which, in turn, provoke the age-specific response. The Committee on Adolescence recommends that all references to pediatric patients give proper semantic recognition to infants, children, and adolescents, and that the Academy adopt the policy that the term "child" should no longer be used for all age groups. The words "youth," "adolescent," or "adolescence" should be used when referring to those between puberty and maturity.

SECTION ON ANESTHESIOLOGY—NEW PROGRAM: The Section on Anesthesiology of the American Academy of Pediatrics is co-sponsoring two-day visits to community hospitals by one or two pediatric anesthesiologists from children's hospitals in their areas. One talk will be given each day. Suggested topics are: ventilatory care for neonates; advances in pediatric anesthesia; respiratory treatment for pediatric patients; temperature maintainance and transport of sick infants; and evaluation of new equipment. The Section on Anesthesiology will pay the honorarium and the hospital/medical society/community will be expected to pay the expenses.

This article illustrates the potential of placing audiology services in a family physician’s practice setting to increase referrals of geriatric and pediatric patients to audiologists. The primary focus of family practice physicians is the diagnosis/intervention of critical systemic disorders (e.g., cardiovascular disease, diabetes, cancer). Hence concurrent hearing/balance disorders are likely to be overshadowed in such patients. If audiologists get referrals from these physicians and have direct access to diagnose and manage concurrent hearing/balance problems in these patients, successful audiology practice patterns will emerge, and there will be increased visibility and profitability of audiological services. As a direct consequence, audiological services will move into the mainstream of healthcare delivery, and the profession of audiology will move further towards its goals of early detection and intervention for hearing and balance problems in geriatric and pediatric populations.
