DEVICE FOR INTRODUCING MEDICAL FLUID INTO THE HUMAN EAR

摘要

A device (10) is provided for administering medical fluid to at least one of the ear canal, and the eardrum of a human ear. The device includes an earplug (12) adapted to fit in the ear such that at least a portion of the earplug is snugly received in, and substantially seals the ear canal. The earplug has an outer end section (14) proximate the concha of the ear, and an inner end section (16) proximate the eardrum. The conduit (40) extends completely through the earplug from the outer end section to the inner end section thereof for introducing medical fluid through the earplug into the ear canal, such that the medical fluid is administered to at least one of the ear canal and the eardrum.
