Tympanometer
An objective middle-ear assessment system that varies ear-canal pressure and measures tympanic-membrane mobility.
Core Function Highlights
- Assess middle-ear statusUses tympanometry to assess membrane mobility, middle-ear pressure and possible effusion.
- Assess Eustachian-tube function and membrane integrityUses pressure curves and ear-canal volume to support assessment of tube function and membrane status.
- Support hearing-loss differentiationComplements other hearing tests to help distinguish conductive from sensorineural hearing problems.
