Tympanometers are medical devices used to assess middle ear function by measuring eardrum movement in response to changes in air pressure. The device, often handheld and portable, is essential for diagnosing conditions like ear infections, fluid buildup, eustachian tube dysfunction, and other middle ear issues. During testing, a probe is placed in the ear canal, varying air pressure while emitting a tone. The tympanometer then records how the eardrum responds, generating a tympanogram that audiologists or ENT specialists interpret. This quick, non-invasive test is commonly used for patients of all ages, including infants and children, due to its ease and efficiency. Tympanometers provide valuable insights for early diagnosis and management of hearing-related conditions, supporting better hearing health outcomes.
