Ventilation tubes
Ear ventilation tubes (vent tubes) or a power-assisted adenoidectomy help prevent fluid buildup and infection in the ear. Which method is used depends on your patient's condition and what’s causing the ear infections.
To help keep your patient's middle ear free of fluid build-up and infection, doctor may need to insert ventilation tubes in the ears or remove the adenoids (power-assisted adenoidectomy). Advanced Medtronic surgical products help make both procedures fast, safe, and effective.
