General Practitioner
Removing earwax or ear plugs by irrigation or syringing is an old-fashioned method.
Spraying out ears has several disadvantages over dry ear canal cleaning with microsuction and curettage. At the core, you don’t want to introduce unnecessary water into the ear and certainly don’t want to inject pressure into the narrow ear canal.
Spraying is riskier, applicable in fewer ear canal types, less effective (especially with hard earwax and earwax that blocks the entire ear canal), can lead to subsequent complications (especially infections) and is often perceived as unpleasant.
Spraying out is a method that has long been replaced by microsuction or suctioning out by the ENT doctor in the hospital. This is less risky, widely applicable, less hassle, faster and more pleasant for the patient.

To enable suctioning, the ENT doctor has access to a large fixed 3D microscope and a microsuction pump integrated into a special unit.
This large investment is obviously not feasible for you as a GP.
Recently, however, a unique technological innovation has now made it possible to switch to ear suctioning for a small investment anyway.
The key is the Vorotek O Scope recently introduced in Europe. This head-borne microscope allows both eyes to view the entire ear canal in 3D with slight magnification.
With this, earwax and ear plug removal with microsuction is now also possible for you as a general practitioner or your physician assistants.
We offer you as a general practitioner all the equipment, training and guidance from the ENT doctor to safely transition to microsuction or earwax extraction.
Our training course “Dry Ear Cleaning for the Physician Assistant” is accredited by KABIZ-DA and the NVDA with 41.5 points.
