Abstract
Otitis media (OM), a disease of the middle ear, is one of the most common diseases of childhood. Although the medical and surgical treatment of the disease by physicians is covered at length in the literature, information about the role of nurses in dealing with OM is scant. The purpose of this article is to propose a community-based nursing prevention plan for OM based on what is known about its prevalence and pathogenesis.
