Microsuction technique
The Procedures
Microsuction
Microsuction is a wax-removal technique using a microscope to look straight into the ear canal and a sterile suction device at low pressure to remove the wax.
Safe and Comfortable
The technique uses gentle suction and is safer and more comfortable than all other forms of ear cleaning.
Removing the Blockage
A thin probe is directed at the ear wax and/or discharge in the ear canal, and the gentle suction is applied to remove the blockage.
FIRST STEPS TO BETTER HEARING
First the audiologist will ask some questions relating to your health and hearing difficulties
Your audiologist will examine your ears with a light, called an otoscope
Your audiologist will explain the test, place the headphones on and ask you to press a button every time you hear a beep, no matter how quiet it is. This may be completed with different headphones to complete a full picture of your hearing thresholds
Your audiologist will explain the test results and recommend hearing aids if needed to help you hear clearer
Your audiologist will fit the most appropriate hearing aid for your hearing loss configuration and verify it is working through a series of tests
The functionality of the hearing aids will be explained
The tests may vary and you may be asked to come back for more tests to find out more about your ears and hearing. If wax build up is causing the hearing loss, a procedure called Microsuction will be recommended. If you suffer from permanent hearing loss hearing aids will be recommended.
