Immunoprophylaxis of Otitis Media

  • Chapter
Immunobiology of Proteins and Peptides VI

Part of the book series: Advances in Experimental Medicine and Biology ((AEMB,volume 303))

Abstract

In considering the development of a vaccine to prevent otitis media, it is important to explore the rationale for such a vaccine, the epidemiology and spectrum of the disease, as well as its impact on child health, the etiology and pathogenesis of otitis media, especially as related to middle ear microbial pathogens, and the present status of otitis media vaccine research.
