EarCheck giveaway

Earache???
No money to waste on a co-pay??
Not sure if you really need to even go to the doctor?
Not anymore. Simply use the EarCheck monitor and you can save yourself the trip if you just have a fussy child or baby. Check out the product information below and let me know what you think!

Product Information
EarCheck® Middle Ear Monitor is the first clinically proven home-use monitor that accurately detects middle ear fluid, a key sign of an ear infection.

Used by pediatricians for years, EarCheck helps you identify:

If your child might have an ear infection
When it's necessary to seek medical attention
When the fluid is going away or gone
All in the convenience of your own home!

Fast: With the touch of a button, quickly detect the presence of middle ear fluid accurately and painlessly.

Accurate: Clinically proven and used by pediatricians; FDA cleared and UL approved.

Easy to use: Provides results in seconds in just a few easy steps.

Safe: Designed to be gentle on a child's delicate ear - ages 6 months and up

The EarCheck® Middle Ear Monitor uses gentle sound waves to accurately and painlessly detect the presence of middle ear fluid, a key sign of an ear infection. This is the same patented and proven acoustic reflectometry technology used by thousands of physicians since 1997, and is a technique recommended by the American Academies of Pediatrics and Family Physicians.1

Simply place the tip of EarCheck® into the child's outer ear canal and press the SCAN button; the monitor works by sending a pleasant chirping sound into the ear canal. Some of this sound bounces off the eardrum and travels back to the instrument's built-in microphone. EarCheck® then analyzes the reflected sound to determine if the eardrum is working normally. If there is fluid in the ear, the eardrum's vibrations may be restricted. The greater the fluid level, the greater the reflected sound. Within only seconds, you will be able to determine if your child has fluid in the middle ear.

Use EarCheck® Middle Ear Monitor if your child:
Shows signs of an ear infection
Is being treated for an ear infection
Has a cold
Suffers from frequent ear infections

The signs of a middle ear infection can range from mild to severe, but often include the following: Fluid in the middle ear
Runny/stuffy nose or cough
Irritability
Pulling or rubbing the ear (indicating ear pain)
Decrease in appetite
Fever
It is important to note that fluid may be present in the middle ear without an active infection; this is called otitis media with effusion and is often associated with an oncoming ear infection or recovery from one.

NOTE: EarCheck® indicates the likelihood of fluid during time of testing. It is important to keep in mind that middle ear fluid is not always constant and may appear rapidly and then quickly go away. Your doctor is the best source of information about your child's health. If your child is sick, consult your doctor.

I really like that you can keep a handle on things and make sure they don't get infections instead of guessing and sitting for hours in the Dr. waiting room and hoping they don't get sicker being around all the other sick kids.

I think the BEST thing is having the ability to know if there is an ear infection or not. It's so difficult to try to guess if they have one and wonder why they are fussing.

This really struck a not so gentle chord - since we are dealing with an ear infection right now! At first we thought it might just be a case of water clogged ears as we'd been swimming in a heavily clorinated pool. This should would have come in handy!

Micheleb said...

EarCheck is easy and painless using sound waves to check for inner ear fluid.
