An Effective Solution for Middle Ear Problems

The Otovent nasal balloon device is clinically proven to alleviate pressure discomfort caused by otitis media with effusion, commonly known as glue ear. Designed for both adults and children, Otovent offers an easy and non-invasive way to restore normal middle ear function while reducing the need for medication or surgical intervention.

How Does the Otovent Work?

Otovent works through a process called autoinflation, utilizing the gentle force of a nasal balloon to equalize pressure in the middle ear. When the balloon is inflated via your nostril, it encourages the opening of the Eustachian tube, which regulates pressure and facilitates the natural drainage of built-up fluid. This mechanism helps clear the blocked sensation in your ears and may improve hearing capability.

Safe, Simple, and Clinically Approved

Otovent is a safe and user-friendly solution, making it suitable even for young patients. Endorsed by healthcare professionals, the device is simple to perform, requiring just a few minutes of your daily routine. It is recommended as part of initial treatment plans for addressing glue ear before considering surgical options like grommet insertion.

Possible Side Effects of Otovent Autoinflation Device:

Otovent is generally safe, but some users may experience:

  • Mild ear discomfort or pain during use

  • Temporary dizziness or lightheadedness

  • Headache

  • Occasional minor nosebleeds (rare)

If you experience persistent pain, bleeding, or discomfort, stop using the device and consult a healthcare professional.

Q: Why should I use Otovent?
A: Otovent is designed to help when you can’t naturally clear pressure in your middle ear (Eustachian tube dysfunction). It’s ideal for conditions like glue ear (otitis media with effusion), after flights, diving, or pressure chamber treatments. Left untreated, these issues can lead to a “blocked ear” feeling, reduced hearing, or fluid buildup. Otovent gently equalises ear pressure and relieves discomfort.

Q: How does the Otovent method work?
A: The Otovent technique has two phases:

  • Inflation Phase: You blow up the balloon by gently blowing through one nostril, which helps open the Eustachian tube.

  • Deflation Phase: If the inflation phase doesn’t work, you let the air flow back from the balloon into your nostril while swallowing, which can also open the tube.
    Start with the inflation phase, and only use both phases if needed.

Q: Who can use Otovent?
A: Otovent is suitable for adults and children aged 3 and above. For kids, an adult should always supervise.

Q: How often and for how long should I use Otovent?
A: In the first week, use it three times a day (morning, noon, evening). After that, twice a day (morning and evening) is enough. A typical course lasts 2–3 weeks. Each balloon can be used up to 20 times.

Q: When should I avoid using Otovent?
A: Don’t use Otovent if you have a cold, ear infection (acute otitis media), or an upper respiratory infection.

Q: How do I use Otovent?
A:

  1. Attach the balloon to the nosepiece.

  2. Hold the nosepiece firmly against one nostril and close the other nostril with your fingers.

  3. Take a deep breath, close your mouth, and blow through your nostril to inflate the balloon (about the size of a grapefruit).

  4. Repeat for the other nostril.
    A mild feeling of pressure, discomfort, or dizziness is normal at first and shows it’s working. If you don’t feel any change, try the deflation phase by swallowing while air flows back from the balloon.
