After twenty years of using ear wash syringes and a water pik to remove cerumen from ear canals, our office recently purchased the Elephant Ear Washer based on reports seen on NP-Clinical. Our medical assistants have found that this is one of the best systems they have ever used in terms of convenience and ease of use. The ear washer looks like a typical spray bottle that has been adapted with tubing, nozzle and a splash back ring for protection. The bottle is filled with warm water and then using a pump motion with your fingers around the trigger, water is "squirted" into the ear with just enough force to do the job but not enough to damage delicate ear structures. Usually by the time you have finished one bottle of warm water (which holds 16-20 ounces), the ear canal is clear. Patients like it too and have not reported any significant feelings of discomfort. In fact, many are surprised that it works as well as it does. It is also less frightening to young children because it looks like a spray bottle that could be used to water plants. The only possible area of concern is that the operator's hand could get tired from the pumping action if it took more than one bottle of water to clear the ear canal. You can also use mixtures of hydogen peroxide and water, if desired.
