TympoVent Ventilation Tubes

Armstrong Type
Available as a grommet and with a plain end. The beveled inner flange is angled to the shank, which allows easier insertion and keeps the tube parallel to the auditory canal. The plain end tube can be cut into the desired length.

Bevel Bobbin Type
The bell-shaped outer flange improves ventilation and helps viewing through the lumen.

Collar Button Type
A larger inner diameter reduces the risk of occlusion.

Donaldson Type
Its easy-to-use design has made this one of the most popular types of ventilation tubes. The silicone version can be compressed for easy insertion.

Paparella Type
This tube is conveniently rotated into position by introducing the lead corner of the flange into the myringotomy.

Reuter Bobbin Type
This type of tube has an excellent history of providing a somewhat longer duration for middle ear ventilation and is available in both Fluorplastic and Titanium.

Shepard Type
A popular short-term tube. Available with and without tail.

Star Tube
This tube has been designed in order to make the insertion and removal easier. The inner flange has a soft umbrella-like design with three slits in order to facilitate the collapse of the flanges during insertion and removal.

Straight Tube
Available both for short-term and long- term use, with different flange diameters. The tube for long-term use has a larger outer flange diameter, preventing the tube from an early extrusion.

T-tube
The soft large flanges prevent the tube from extrusion. The tube is easily inserted with the Atos T-tube inserter. The 12 mm tube can be cut to desired length.

Tübingen Type
This tube is often used for medium/long-term ventilation. Available in Titanium and Gold. The Gold type has an extra large inner diameter which makes this tube an excellent performer when there is a high risk of occlusion.

Tube container
Atos Medical has designed a single hand, easy-to-open tube container to secure a safe and practical handling of the tubes. The container can easily be opened with one hand by sliding the lid backwards, making the pick-up both quick and safe. The small size of the container and the 10 pcs dispenser box drastically reduce storage space.
