1937 Armstrong & Heim in Jrnl. Amer. Med. Assoc. 7 Aug. 419/1 In the United States the term ‘aviator's or aviation ear’ has begun to appear in the literature, while in Germany the terms ‘barotrauma’ and ‘tonetrauma’ have been suggested. The former are obviously unsuitable and the latter may be criticized as not being descriptive of the disease. We therefore suggest ‘aero-otitis media’..as a suitable descriptive term.
