EarCheck Middle Ear Monitor

Filed under: ENT , OTC

Are you a busy parent who is tired of taking your children to medical professionals when they are sick? Would you like to spend some of your disposable income on a "state of the art" gadget to make a preliminary diagnosis, before you take your hair to an MD? Then the EarCheck is perfect for you!

The gentle, reliable way to check for signs of Ear Infection - instantly!

EarCheck Monitor takes the worry and guesswork out of knowing if there is fluid in your child's middle ear, a key symptom of ear infection. At the touch of a button, it quickly and accurately indicates the likelihood of middle ear fluid.

Accurate Results in Just Seconds

With a pleasant "chirping" sound, the EarCheck Monitor will help you:

  • Decide when to call the doctor during acute episodes.

  • Monitor fluid during and after antibiotic treatment.

  • Monitor children with chronic ear infections.
  • Designed especially for a child's sensitive ears, the EarCheck Monitor utilizes a patented technology used by doctors that sends pleasant sound waves down the ear canal. Advanced electronics analyze the echo of the sound to determine the presence of middle ear fluid. In seconds, the LCD display indicates the likelihood of fluid and interprets the results: "Consult Doctor", "Monitor", or "Fluid Unlikely".

    EarCheck is an advanced medical instrument which accurately detects the presence of middle ear fluid (i.e. otitis media with effusion) that may be associated with acute ear infection. Middle ear effusion may be associated with temporary hearing loss in some children. The device is intended to assist parents in determining when to seek medical attention. The instrument is designed for use in the home by parents and other caregivers on children from 6 months to young adult.
