Otitis media with effusion (OME) in primary care: follow-up protocol
Abstract Introduction and objective: With the intention of improving the quality of care of children with otitis media with effusion (OME), the pediatricians of primary care (PAP) have been provided procedures diagnostic and training media, establishing a rule of consensus action. In this paper we present the Protocol developed for the monitoring of OME in children. Method: A team of pediatricians and otolaryngologists from the same Healthcare Area, who have worked to achieve this consensus. Through the published guides and review of the literature on OME, we find his best adaptation to our environment. Results: We expose the necessary steps for the diagnosis, follow-up, referral and documentation of OME in children. Discussion: A correct therapeutic intervention for OME in children involves documenting patient characteristics and clinical findings of the pneumatic otoscopy and tympanometry, perform periodic and vigilant monitoring of potential disruptions, know and apply the reasons for referral to specialized care and maintaining good communication between pediatricians and ENT. Conclusions: The agreement between pediatricians and ENT has helped establish a joint guide of action in children for OME, which together with the improvement of diagnosis, will result in a greater degree of efficiency in the childhood care of OME.
