Eustachian Tube Insertion:
The Mytingotomy is considered to be
clean procedure which means we do
not prep or drape the patient for this
procedure.
The surgeon may wear a gown or
gloves or just gloves this is left up to
his discretion.
Also this depends on the policy and
the universal procedures of the
institution that the procedure is
preformed.
The instruments used in this procedure will be a
myringotomy blade or knife and a disposable blade which
ever the doctor prefers.
Different size specula to choose from, the surgeon may
want a ear curette, different size suctions the 5 suction and
the 3 suction will usually do fine for this procedure.
You will also need a alligator forceps to place the
Eustachian tube or myringotomy ear tube in the middle
typaninic membrane or the eardrum.
The surgeon will also need a Rosen pick and a Cerumen
ear curette for the wax build up that most people have.
This will help clear the incision site and keep the incision
clean for the surgeon to see clearly.
