Abstract

Otitis media, commonly referred to as "glue ear," is a condition characterised by the presence of fluid in the middle ear, which can manifest in two primary forms. Acute otitis media (AOM) occurs when the fluid buildup is associated with symptoms of acute illness, such as ear pain, fever, upper respiratory tract infection, tinnitus, or vertigo (Auckland Regional Community Pathways, 2025). In contrast, otitis media with effusion (OME) is the presence of fluid in the middle ear without evidence of acute inflammation (Auckland Regional Community Pathways, 2025).
