"The EarCheck monitor provided my family with the peace of mind in being able to know when my son was experiencing an ear infection. He doesn't always present with the normal symptoms that doctors describe for ear infections. We have also used the monitor on ourselves during this winter and have gone to the doctor when normally; we might have ignored the symptoms and used over-the-counter medications." "Having two children with chronic ear infections has turned many nights into sleepless ones. The EarCheck Monitor got me to the doctor on the first sign of the infection, rather than the sleepless night." "I am absolutely beyond satisfied with this product. I bought and used it wondering if my son had yet ANOTHER ear infection when his temperature spiked, and it alerted us to consult a MD. I was thrilled to be able to tell my husband that I had not "wasted my money", when our MD diagnosed him with a right middle ear infection. I am so glad that my son didn't have to wait longer to be treated as we waited for more signs and symptoms (he NEVER complains.) Thank you for this product and I will recommend it to everyone I know!"Kristi, San Antonio, TX "We first bought an otoscope to try to proactively identify our children's ear infections, but we found that it was hard to make sense of what we were seeing. So, we picked up the Ear Check® Middle Ear Monitor (1st gen), and I couldn't be more happy with it. It is very easy to use, and it returns meaningful, easy-to-understand results. It uses a 5 number scale to qualify the level of the infection. In both instances, we didn't tell the pediatrician what the device had said, but they went on to assess the infection exactly the same. We have also used it on both my wife and I and it said we were fine. This is great to tell if a prescribed antibiotic is doing its job. The last time we had an infection, we got a prescription, and we noticed immediately that the drug was not working because Ear Check indicated no improvement. I wouldn't call this a substitute for a doctor, but it is great for those who want to be more informed or are just looking for peace-of-mind." "I wish I found this sooner!! My son is on his 4th ear infection and this detected it. My son doesn't give us the "normal" warning signs of an ear infection. We have no clue trouble is brewing until the ear infection is so bad he becomes physically ill. We now regularly check him with this so we catch it early. I love this! Plus, he doesn't mind when we use the Earcheck because he like the "chirp" it uses to detect fluid in the ear. You do need to practice using this a few times when you are certain of your child's ear status. The angle you hold this to the ear affects the results." "I just want to say how extremely pleased I was with your customer service department. I bought a defective Earcheck Middle Ear Monitor (from a different company) and thought I was out my money (at least for shipping) and I was contacted by your friendly staff and was immediately taken care of and received my WORKING replacement monitor within a few days and I just wanted to say thank you for taking care of your customers!" "After my infant daughter had 2 ear infections back-to-back and both happened in the middle of the night, my friend referred me to earcheck.com. Having the EarCheck Middle Ear Monitor has given me peace of mind when I cannot get to a pediatrician right away." "Our teacher had noticed a decline in our son's hearing. We took Mark to an ear specialist, and the doctor said Mark was one type of patient that ear, nose, and throat doctors worry about. These patients become so used to having infections and fluid buildup that they believe it is normal so they don't complain. The doctor said Mark should have been complaining with the amount of pressure that was being exerted on his ear drum. He was scheduled for ear tubes as soon as possible. We purchased the EarCheck Monitor to keep track of Mark's ears before we could get the surgery done. The monitor consistently indicated a 4 or 5 reading, mostly 5.
Now that Mark has the ear tubes, the monitor registers a level 1. We are using the monitor now just to verify the tubes are still in place and doing their job. "I asked my doctor if he's ever heard of this and he told me NO. I was really surprised to find that out. I was a little hesitant as to know if it really did tell you the right results and lo and behold, it was right on with ear infection. I'd recommend this to any new parent! It sure saves time when going to the doctor." "The EarCheck monitor has been very helpful. Our daughter was taken to the pediatrician's office just this past week because the EarCheck monitor read a level 5—and it was accurate. Thanks for the reassurance. It was a great purchase. Saved us the worry and guessing." |
