Preventing Collapse of External Auditory Meatus During Audiometry
Ronald C. Pearlman, PhD
Arch Otolaryngol. 1975;101(11):686-688.
Abstract
Occlusion of the external auditory meatus resulting from earphone pressure can produce a pseudoconductive hearing loss. I describe a method for detecting ear canal collapse by otoscopy and I suggest a method of correcting the problem with a polyethylene tube prosthesis.
