Top Otoscope Manufacturers and Suppliers

Otoscope is a portable device that doctors and other medical professionals use to check patients' ears. The tools are used both during standard physical exams and to assist with sickness or condition diagnosis based on particular patient complaints like ear discomfort or hearing problems.

The otoscope comprises a handle to which a ¹magnifying lens and a tiny light are connected. On the otoscope's head, a speculum, a disposable attachment, is utilised.

To observe the auditory canal and eardrum, the doctor delicately inserts this conical-shaped attachment into the patient's ear (called the tympanic membrane).

The patient's nasal passages and sometimes the back of the throat may also be examined using the same device. After using the speculum on a patient, it is discarded. The nasal passageways are examined using various ²speculum designs.

The majority of otoscopes are either tabletop, wall-mounted, or pocket types. By producing a brief burst of pressured air and then watching the eardrum's reaction to that stimulus, pneumatic otoscopy allows medical professionals to examine the ear drum's response.
