What are the treatment recommendations for COVID-19
children with chronic otitis media with effusion?
Chronic otitis media with effusion is a common childhood disease usually
with the absence of signs or symptoms of acute ear infection. It is
therefore preferable to treat COVID-19 first and delay elective surgery.
The indication and choice of surgery (e.g. , tympanostomy tubes
and/or adenoidectomy) should comply with the professional Clinical
Practice Guidelines.126,127
