         <description><![CDATA[Die Impfung von Säuglingen gegen Pneumokokken hat mehrere Effekte: Sie schützt die Impflinge vor invasiven Erkrankungen durch die Erreger. Geimpfte bekommen zudem weniger Mittelohrentzündungen. Damit können Antibiotika eingespart werden, und der Resistenzdruck auf die Bakterien wird verringert. 
BAD ORB. Die Prävention der akuten Otitis media bei Kindern durch Pneumokokken-Impfung ist insgesamt ein sinnvolles Konzept. Epidemiologische Daten aus den USA belegen, dass bei hoher Impfungsrate nicht...]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[
Ear infections are very common in dogs. Among all dog breeds, Poodles and Cocker Spaniels are the ones most prone to this type of health concern. Yeasts or bacteria are the common causes of these infections. And this condition could make your pets uncomfortable and very irritable.
Symptoms of Ear Infection in Dogs
You’ll know if your dog is suffering from ear infections if its ear canals seem to be very sensitive.
Normally, your dog will shake his head frequently in the attempt to get rid of...]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[A cold is a viral infection that affects the upper airway including the nose, pharynx, throat, airways, and lungs.
What is going on in the body?
The common cold is the most common reason that people miss work or school. There are at least 200 different viruses that cause colds. These include rhinoviruses and coronaviruses, and they are different from the viruses that cause the flu. Cold viruses are very contagious. They are airborne and are transmitted when one breathes, coughs, or sneezes....]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[Primary-care medicine is as much art as it is science, but clinicians sometimes rely too heavily on the former when it comes to prescribing antibiotics. Nowhere is this truer than in the treatment of respiratory tract infections (RTIs).

Most cases of bronchitis are caused by viruses, but many clinicians prescribe antibiotics at their patients' insistence. Patients may explain that they are going on a long-planned vacation and just can't afford to be sick, or they are getting married that...]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[The percentage of children’s ear, nose and throat infections caused by a type of dangerous, drug-resistant bacteria has more than doubled nationwide. The increase has been described as alarming and is a cause for concern. The bacteria, known as methicillin-resistant staphylococcus aureus, or MRSA, can cause dangerous and even life-threatening invasive infections that do not respond to penicillin-based antibiotics. Doctors are concerned that MRSA is becoming resistant to other antibiotics as...]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[
Every year roughly 280,000 children under the age of three have ear tube surgery, which is designed to reduce the number of ear infections or drain middle ear fluid that might muffle sounds and hinder language development.&#160; Many parents are scared into agreeing to the operation because they’re told it might prevent developmental problems later in life. The facts however, according to the New England Journal of Medicine, do not support such a claim.

         <description><![CDATA[It's hard to know how much your child's hearing will be affected by glue ear. Some children have a lot of hearing loss, while others have only mild loss.
Doctors often use the word decibel (dB) when talking about hearing loss. Decibels are used to indicate the loudness of a sound as well as the severity of a hearing loss. Studies have shown that with glue ear, the loss of hearing can range from 0 dB to 60 dB.

    The average loss is between about 20 and 30 dB. This is normally called mild...]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[Acute ear infection
An acute ear infection is a sudden and usually brief infection of the middle ear. Doctors call it acute otitis media or purulent otitis media.
Unlike glue ear, an acute ear infection generally causes ear pain or earache and may also cause a fever. These symptoms happen because parts of your child's ear are infected with bacteria or a virus (both are types of germs). This leads to the inside of your child's ear becoming inflamed. Children with an acute ear infection also have...]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[An ear infection with discharge can damage your hearing. But there are treatments that can stop an infection causing damage.
We've looked at the best and most up-to-date research to produce this information. You can use it to talk to your doctor or pharmacist and decide which treatments are right for you.
What is ear infection with discharge?
If your ear is leaking pus, you may have a hole in your eardrum. Your eardrum is stretched across the inner end of your ear canal. It vibrates when sound...]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[There hasn't been much research to tell if surgery to put in grommets helps to prevent further ear infections.
We found only one small, good-quality study (randomised controlled trial). The study found that grommets helped prevent ear infections for six months but not in the long term.
This study was small, including just 44 children. More research is needed to decide whether surgery to put grommets in should be used for ear infections.
