Professional Education Courses
The Tympanometry Training Course spans one full day. This comprehensive training day is designed to provide participants with a thorough understanding of the tympanometry procedure, interpretation of tympanograms, and the necessary skills to perform accurate and reliable assessments.
A tympanometry test is conducted by ear care professionals using a specialised device called a ‘tympanometer.’ During the test, the tympanometer is gently inserted into the ear canal, and it applies varying air pressure to the middle ear. This pressure change prompts the eardrum to respond in specific ways. The resulting tympanogram, which is a graphical representation, helps determine whether the eardrum reacts appropriately to the pressure changes.
Acquiring the skill to offer tympanometry assessments can bring several benefits to your practice. By incorporating this diagnostic tool, you can provide more precise advice and potential referrals to general practitioners, offering your clients a more comprehensive hearing health assessment. Furthermore, as tympanometry is often overlooked in private practices, being able to offer this valuable service sets you apart from your peers, enhancing your professional reputation and potentially attracting new clients seeking comprehensive audiological evaluations.

Description
Tympanometry is a medical test specifically designed to assess the functioning of the middle ear. Unlike otoscopy, which only provides a visual examination of the tympanic membrane, tympanometry offers quantitative data that complements qualitative observations. By incorporating this test, hearing care professionals gain valuable insights that can contribute to potential diagnoses and enhance the quality of care provided to clients. Enhance the precision of your advice and potential referrals to GPs and grant clients peace of mind through this valuable addition to your practice.
