The EarPopper® ear relief device balances pressure in the middle ear by delivering a safe, constant stream of air into the nasal cavity. Our specialized medical products are available exclusively to professionals and accredited facilities, ensuring optimal quality and safety.

The concern is when you can’t pop your ears,” says Daniel Killeen, MD, a University Hospitals ear specialist.

Mr Sameer Khemani is a Consultant ENT Surgeon at Spire Gatwick Park Hospital and Surrey and Sussex NHS Trust, specialising in tonsillectomy and adenotonsillectomy, Eustachian tube balloon dilatation, obstructive sleep apnoea and snoring, and grommets insertion. This is common in randomized studies where a standard method is being compared to an attractive “high-tech” method. The Eustachian Tube (ET) is the body's only mechanism for equalising pressure and ventilating the space behind the eardrum (middle ear). The ascent or descent of the heights can cause serious discomfort which sometimes threaten career prospects.Test consistency was evaluated in a subset of patients for both test-retest reliability and internal consistency. Nous visons à déterminer la convenance/l’efficacité de l’appareil EarPopper® pour le traitement de l’otite séreuse dans notre environnement. The reports include the EarPopper scoring system (ESS) and audiometric parameters (before and after therapy).

In the event of any safety concerns or for any other information about a product please carefully read any instructions provided on the label or packaging and contact the manufacturer. The dose justification is based on previous randomized controlled trials featuring the EP device, which had an excellent safety profile with no longterm sequelae or side-effects [ 5, 6]. Resolution of OME: this refers to a total clearance of effusion within the middle ear which was assessed using a dichotomous variable of “absence” or “presence” of effusion posttreatment and clinical reports.

We will try and repair the faulty goods, however, if the product cannot be repaired you are entitled to either an exchange for something of the same value or a full refund. The physician will log on to the Biostatistics Randomization Management System (BRMS) and randomize the subject to either EP or control. Similarly, a related problem to OME, where the EarPopper therapy could be indicated is the eustachian tube dysfunction. In this case, the group that receives the EP device at the start will be the intervention arm, and the group that receives the device later is the control arm. Swallow: Swallowing is a great way to engage the Eustachian tubes to clear any blockages and ensure the air pressure is regulated more smoothly.
