What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of ventilation tubes in children with recurrent ear infections. By drawing lots, young children with recurrent ear infections will be assigned to one of two groups (ventilation tubes or close follow-up), and the number of ear infections and antibiotic prescriptions in each group will be monitored. The study participants will be followed until they are 7 years old.
