INDICATIONS FOR USE
The EarPopper is indicated for use in the treatment of
negative middle ear pressure.
Negative middle ear pressure can lead to fluid accumulation in the
middle ear, impaired hearing and hearing loss. The EarPopper provides
a method for ventilating the middle ear by introducing air through the
nose and Eustachian tube into the middle ear. Equalizing middle ear
pressure can prevent the accumulation of fluid and prevent hearing loss.
PRECAUTIONS
• Do not force the instrument into the nasal cavity.
• To ensure compliance, the physician should demonstrate the proper
use of the device when first recommending the EarPopper.
• Do not use the EarPopper without a clean, intact nosepiece attached.
CONTRAINDICATIONS
• Patients who will be using the device at home should be instructed
not to use the EarPopper in the presence of severe ear infection,
upper respiratory infection, heavy nasal congestion, or cold symptoms
without first consulting their physician.
ADVERSE REACTIONS
• Patients may feel a pressure change and/or "pop" in one or both ears
after use of the EarPopper. The ears may feel temporarily "clogged"
after inflation. This sensation is an indication that the procedure is
working correctly and it should decrease within a few minutes.
