TL;DR
Administration of inactivated trivalent influenza vaccine to children aged 6 to 24 months did not reduce their burden of AOM or their utilization of selected health care and related resources during peak influenza periods.
Abstract
Administration of inactivated trivalent influenza vaccine to children aged 6 to 24 months did not reduce their burden of AOM or their utilization of selected health care and related resources.

Respiratory syncytial virus is the principal virus invading the middle ear during acute otitis media in children and an effective vaccine against upper respiratory tract infections caused by respiratory syncyTial virus may reduce the incidence of acute OtitisMedia in children.

Recommendations to improve surveillance include establishing criteria for setting susceptibility breakpoints for clinically appropriate antimicrobials to ensure relevance for treating AOM, testing middle ear fluid or nasal swab isolates in addition to sterile site isolates and testing of drugs that are useful in treating Aom.

Influenza vaccination of 6- to 30-month-old children in day care was associated with a decreased incidence of otitis media during the influenza season.

It is concluded that influenza vaccination decreases the incidence of acute otitis media in children during an influenza A epidemic, suggesting also that other vaccines against respiratory viruses may be an effective way to reduce the incidence.

The data suggest that viruses interact with bacteria and that concurrent viral infection can significantly worsen the clinical course of bacterial AOM, and the presence of virus in middle ear fluid may contribute to the pathogenesis and outcome ofacterial AOM.

Although there were no reductions in respiratory or febrile respiratory illnesses among all vaccinated children, there was a trend for reductions in such illnesses among vaccinated children with preexisting HI antibodies to influenza A(H3N2) and B, and immunologic priming in young children may be important for vaccine response and for protection against infection.

61 Citations2000Kenneth McIntosh, Tracy A. Lieu
It is shown that influenza A strains regularly change their antigenic coat, either by slow, mutation-driven, interpandemic drift or by a sudden, reassortment-driven shift, which predisposes patients most frequently to bacterial pneumonia.

The focus of the interest is not on incorporating prior information into the design of trials for efficacy, but rather on evaluating whether or not the Bayesian approach with vague prior information produces comparable results to a frequentist approach.
