Introducing the Welch
Allyn Ear Wash System.
Simplicity. Cleanliness. Safety. Efficiency.
Welch Allyn's Ear Wash System with Hydrovac Action is a state-of-the-art concept
in cerumen removal. The Ear Wash System eliminates messy outflow by automatically
dislodging, removing, and disposing of cerumen. And with all its built-in safety
features, the Ear Wash System is ideal for use on patients of any age.
Hydrovac Action:
What makes the Welch Allyn Ear Wash System truely revolutionary is its built-in
Hydrovac Action. This proprietary technology features simultaneous irrigation and
suction capabilities, which means all discharge is directed away from you and the patient.
And since you can easily control and monitor suction, water temperature and
pressure levels, the Ear Wash System is ideal for patients of all ages.
Designed with safety in mind:
The Welch Allyn Ear Wash System includes several built-in features that reduce
side effects associated with irrigation - including vertigo, nausea, deeper cerumen
impaction, perferated ear drums and other tympanic membrane damage.
1) Disposable Eartip
2) Handle
3) Pressure Chamber
1) The bio-compatible, latex-free eartip provides a tight seal at the
patient's ear canal, and features an outflow channel that directs water back to the sink
drain instead of onto you or the patient. A cerumen-trapping screen inside the
transparent eartip enables you and your patient to visualize any dislodged cerumen and
discard after use.
2) The handle contains built-in features such as the water flow actuator
and temperature sensor, which help reduce messy outflow as well as the incidence of
patient dizziness and vertigo. Light turns white when water temperature is at least
90°F.
