“…When the diagnosis of AOM was confirmed, conservative or expectant treatment was followed in mild cases and antibiotics were administered in cases of increased risk, such as in children under 2 years of age, bilateral AOMs, and those with increased general affectation. It was defined as rhino-sinusitis to the persistence of daytime or rhinosherhorrhone cough for more than ten days, with no apparent improvement, in the context of an upper respiratory infection [17]. Persistent nasal obstruction was defined as difficulty breathing properly nasally, with associated respiratory symptoms, such as oral breathing, snoring, difficult breathing in sleep, stopping respiratory sleep (apnea), agitated sleep, neck stresses to sleep, drowsiness or feeling of not having rested properly, adenoid facies and swallowing difficulties [18].…”

Introduction: Otitis media with effusion (OME) is common in pediatric primary care consultations. Its etiology is multifactorial, although it has been proven that inflammation factors mediate and that immunity is in a phase of relative immaturity. The objective of this study was to assess the effects of the Traditional Mediterranean Diet (TMD) modulating inflammation and immunity in patients diagnosed with OME. Materials and Methods: A analysis as a single-group pre-test/post-test was conducted on 40 girls and 40 boys between 18 months and 5 years old. Tympanometry normalization was the main test to control the benefit of diet. Clinical and therapeutic variables were studied through evaluation questionnaires, a quality test of the diet, as well as various anthropometric parameters. Results: At the end of one year, tympanometry had normalized in 85% of patients. The remaining 15% had normal audiometry and/or associated symptoms had decreased. Likewise, episodes of recurrent colds decreased from 5.96 ± 1.41 to 2.55 ± 0.37; bacterial complications of 3.09 ± 0.75 to 0.61 ± 0.06 and persistent nasal obstruction of 1.92 ± 0.27 to 0.26 ± 0.05. The degree of satisfaction of the families with the program was very high. Conclusions: The application of the Traditional Mediterranean Diet could have promising effects in the prevention and treatment of otitis media with effusion.
