Parents’ Beliefs And Knowledge About The Management Of Acute Otitis Media: A Qualitative Study, Malene Hansen, Janine Howlett, Chris Del Mar, Tammy Hoffmann

Christopher Del Mar

Acute otitis media is a common reason for antibiotic prescribing, despite strong evidence that antibiotics provide minimal benefit. Studies have demonstrated that patients’ (or parents’) expectations of antibiotics often influence general practitioners’ (GPs) decision to prescribe antibiotics, but few have explored parents’ expectations of the management of infections in children, or which factors influence the development of these expectations. This study aimed to explore parents’ knowledge and beliefs about the management of acute otitis media in children.
