Acute otitis media is diagnosed by a combination of signs and symptoms of acute otitis media (eg, fever, earache); and evidence of a middle ear effusion (fluid seen behind tympanicmembrane, decreasedmobility with insufflation by pneumatic otoscopy, opacity or discoloration of tympanic membrane not because of scarring, or evidence from tympanometry or spectral gradient acoustic reflectometry) but not simple redness of the tympanic membrane.
