Aqua Stim – Water Caloric Irrigator
Aqua Stim is a modern water caloric irrigator developed for accurate vestibular and balance assessment. It is designed to stimulate the horizontal semicircular canal of the inner ear by delivering controlled warm and cool water into the external ear canal. This diagnostic procedure assists clinicians in evaluating vestibular function in patients suffering from dizziness, vertigo, and balance-related disorders.
Key Features
- Precise warm and cool water irrigation for reliable caloric testing
- Supports bithermal caloric stimulation for complete vestibular evaluation
- Automatic temperature regulation when connected with compatible VNG software
- Measures and quantifies caloric nystagmus during vestibular examinations
- USB connectivity with Interacoustics VNG/ENG systems
- Separate external water reservoir eliminates the need for plumbing or drainage systems
- Can be used independently or integrated with VNG software platforms
- Preset irrigation temperatures of 30°C (cool) and 44°C (warm)
- Compact and user-friendly design suitable for clinical environments
Clinical Applications
Aqua Stim is widely used in audiology, ENT, and neurotology clinics for:
- Vestibular function assessment
- Balance disorder diagnosis
- Dizziness and vertigo evaluation
- Peripheral vestibular system testing
- Caloric stimulation procedures
