SHAH VENTILATION TUBES
This
popular pattern affords medium term ventilation of the middle ear
cleft. Its design facilitates insertion through the myringotomy incision
and aids retention of the tube, especially if the inner flange points
to the head of the malleus. Its duration in situ is typically fifteen
to eighteen months.

REDDY GROMMET
The
unique Reddy Grommet has been used widely for several years. It
offers the advantage of a unique grasping feature, which enables
the tube to be presented to the incision in the correct orientation.
This small tube reduces the risk of tympanosclerosis, while its
design assures medium term ventilation, in the order of thirteen
to fifteen months, especially if the inner flange is pointed towards
the head of the malleus.
Developed for: Mr. T. N. Reddy FRCS, Stafford, U.K.
