Overview
The risk factors for mastoiditis are related to acute otitis media risk factors. These include: allergy, upper respiratory tract infection, snoring, previous history of acute otitis media, passive smoker, smoking during pregnancy, low social status. Exposure of infants to day-care centers is a controversial risk factor. [1]
Common Risk Factors
The risk factors for mastoiditis are related to acute otitis media risk factors.
Risk factors for acute mastoiditis
- Allergy
- Upper respiratory tract infection
- Snoring
- Previous history of acute otitis media
- Passive smoker
- Smoking during pregnancy
- Low social status[1]
Risk factors for subacute mastoiditis
- Infancy
- Elderly
- Diabetic
- Immunosuppressed and debilitated patients[2]
Less Common Risk Factors
The risk factor that has been found controversial is the exposure of infants to day-care centers. Day care attendance may cause an increased incidence of upper airways infections and acute otitis media and therefore, mastoiditis. Countries with variations in the age of starting a day-care have shown differences in incidence peaks of acute otitis media.[3][4]
