Bionix OtoClear Ear Irrigation System

OtoClear Ear Irrigation Tips and Systems offer a safe, comfortable, and mess-free solution for ear irrigation. Unlike traditional methods that spray water directly into the ear canal, the OtoClear Tip directs water toward the ear canal wall with three divergent streams, avoiding the Tympanic Membrane. This results in a more effective, patient-friendly, and cost-efficient ear irrigation process.

Indications:

The OtoClear is indicated for use on individuals of 6 months or older with impacted cerumen and/or foreign bodies occluding the ear canal where no infection and/or eardrum perforation is known or suspected.

• The person has previously had complications following ear irrigation procedures
• There is a history of a middle ear infection in the last six weeks
• There is discharge from the ear canal or ear pain or tenderness
• The person has or suspects an ear drum perforation
• The person has had ANY form of ear surgery

General Cleaning Instructions:

To ensure proper maintenance and sanitation, all OtoClear Ear Irrigation devices should be cleaned using a mild dishwashing detergent and warm water. Follow these steps to complete the cleaning process:

1. Prepare the Cleaning Solution: Mix a dishwashing detergent with warm water.
   • NOTE: There is no specific detergent concentration required for general cleaning, add enough detergent to create a sudsy solution.

   • Repeat the rinsing process with fresh water until no suds remain.
