Model #19 - 1 oz Ear Syringe

Description

The ear syringe with a safety guard is a medical instrument used for cleaning the ear canal. The nozzle is designed to fit snugly into the ear canal, and the plunger is used to draw water or cleaning solution into the syringe. The safety guard is an important feature of this type of ear syringe, as it helps to prevent damage to the delicate structures within the ear. The guard typically consists of a small, flexible shield that is placed over the tip of the nozzle before it is inserted into the ear. This shield helps to ensure that the nozzle does not go too far into the ear canal, which could cause damage or discomfort. Latex-Free.

Instructions

"• Flush the syringe thoroughly with water before each use. • Use only warm tap water or physician-recommended solution at about body temperature. • Patient should be seated holding a basin under the ear to catch returning solution. • Holding ear lobe gently between thumb and forefinger, pull back and upward slightly to maximize exposure of ear canal. Direct the ear syringe tip toward the inside of the ear canal, not directly back toward the eardrum. • Gently squeeze the bulb to allow the solution to flow into the ear canal. When ear canal is fully irrigated, hold bulb loosely so the tip does not interfere with water leaving the ear canal."

Care

"•Clean syringe thoroughly in warm soapy water •Rinse bulb and tip several times, squeeze out the excess water, and air dry •Store in a cool dry place"
