Abstract: A system for cleaning an ear of a user is provided. The system includes a fluid reservoir, a temperature sensor, a portable applicator, a fluid pump, and a controller. The fluid reservoir contains a fluid. The temperature sensor generates a temperature control signal corresponding to a fluid temperature of the fluid. The temperature sensor may include a thermistor. The portable applicator includes an output nozzle connected to the fluid reservoir via a fluid supply line. The portable applicator may include an output flow control trigger controlling an output flow of the fluid from the output nozzle. The fluid pump controls a flow of the fluid from the fluid reservoir to the portable applicator via the fluid supply line. The controller is operatively coupled to the fluid pump. The controller adjusts the flow of the fluid based on the temperature control signal.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and a computer program product are provided which establish application-based telemedicine methods and protocols for providing authorization to an unlicensed or licensed user to perform a cleaning operation on a patient's ear canal. Specifically, once the user determines that a cleaning operation is necessary, an application is provided which allows the user to consolidate relevant information regarding the patient, send the relevant patient information along with a permission request to a licensed medical professional, receive an approved permission request, and perform a cleaning operation on the patient.

Abstract: A system for cleansing a patient's ear is disclosed. The system includes a control unit, a portable applicator, and a liquid reservoir. The liquid reservoir includes a heater. The control unit includes controls for maintaining the temperature of the liquid in the reservoir within certain limits, for limiting the pressure of the liquid, and for varying the flow rate and pressure of the liquid. The portable applicator includes a hand piece, a nozzle connected to the fluid source and mounted on the hand piece, and a trigger for providing a flow control signal to the control unit.
