Other pulsating tip attachments had the disadvantage of jetting the
water exiting the ear canal directly back at the working practitioner.
In addition to being unpleasant, this was mighty distasteful! Even more
serious, the jetting stream of water could cause excessive movement damage
to the tympanic membrane, stapes and the cochlea.
With the Grossan Ear Irrigator the illustrated jets spray water in an
alternating pulsating manner so the wax is "rocked" out as illustrated
below. As can be seen from the diagrams, the low pressure used for the water
entering the ear canal lessens risk to the ear drum (D) while the jets
(A, B, C) create the rocking action which effectively and safely loosens
cerumen. The method is much more rapid and safer than any other treatment
mow being used.
This new device is perfect for the practicing physicians and pediatricians
who need immediate visibility of the tympanic membrane during an office
visit. Since the Grossan Ear Irrigator is adaptable to the Hydro Pulse ®
Irrigation System,
it is portable and can be operated by any trained health professional.
No special hookups or plumbing are necessary.
