This study investigated parents' willingness to use and comply with a regimen of xylitol for preventing AOM in their preschool- and kindergarten-aged children.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Method<\/jats:title><jats:p>An Internet questionnaire was designed and administered to parents of young children in preschool and kindergarten settings.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>Most parents were unaware of xylitol's use for AOM and would not likely comply with regimens for preventing AOM in their children; however, parents having previous knowledge of xylitol and whose children had a history of AOM would be more likely to do so.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title><jats:p>Generally, most of these parents did not know about xylitol and probably would not use it to prevent ear infections. Unfortunately, these results parallel earlier findings for teachers and schools, which present obstacles for establishing ear infection prevention programs using similar protocols for young children. The results showed that considerable education and age-appropriate vehicles for administering xylitol are needed before establishing AOM prevention programs in schools and\/or at home.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1044\/2015_lshss-14-0048","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2015,2,5]],"date-time":"2015-02-05T23:30:55Z","timestamp":1423179055000},"page":"127-140","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Will Parents Participate in and Comply With Programs and Regimens Using Xylitol for Preventing Acute Otitis Media in Their Children?"],"prefix":"10.1044","volume":"46","author":[{"given":"Jeffrey L.","family":"Danhauer","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"University of California, Santa Barbara"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Carole E.","family":"Johnson","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"University of Oklahoma Health Sciences Center, Oklahoma City"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Jason A.","family":"Baker","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"University of California, Santa Barbara"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Jung A.","family":"Ryu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"University of California, Santa Barbara"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Rachel A.","family":"Smith","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"University of California, Santa Barbara"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Claire J.","family":"Umeda","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"University of California, Santa Barbara"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1310","reference":[{"key":"e_1_3_2_2_1","unstructured":"American Academy of Pediatrics.
