Tympanometry

tympanometry

€20

Tympanometry is a quick and painless diagnostic test that evaluates middle ear pressure and eardrum mobility in adults and children. It is important for detecting fluid in the middle ear or pressure imbalance. Tympanometry is often combined with audiometry to provide a full picture of ear function.

The test is recommended if there is:

  • hearing loss or a blocked-ear sensation;
  • tinnitus;
  • recurrent middle ear inflammation, especially in children;
  • speech development concerns in children;
  • a need to monitor recovery during or after medication treatment.

Timely diagnostics help identify the cause more precisely and support the right treatment plan.

How to prepare for tympanometry?

First step

Do not use ear drops immediately before the visit.

Second step

Bring any previous hearing tests or ENT reports if they are available.

Third step

For children, it helps if a parent is present, because a calm atmosphere improves the accuracy of the results.

What happens during the examination?

places a small soft probe in the external ear canal;

measures how the eardrum responds to gentle pressure changes and sound signals;

analyzes the tympanogram, which helps show middle ear pressure, fluid, or scar tissue;

may perform audiometry or other additional tests immediately if needed.

What will you receive at the end of the examination?

the tympanometry result together with a specialist explanation;

a treatment plan if a middle ear dysfunction is detected, including medication or procedures when needed;

recommendations for ear-health prevention and advice on whether repeat follow-up is needed.
