Description
Aqua Stim – Water Caloric Irrigator for Vestibular Assessment
Aqua Stim is an advanced water-based caloric irrigator designed for comprehensive vestibular and balance function evaluation. It delivers precisely controlled warm and cold water into the external ear canal to stimulate the horizontal semicircular canal of the inner ear. This controlled stimulation assists clinicians in assessing patients with dizziness, vertigo, or balance-related disorders.
Key Features
- High-precision warm and cold water irrigation for caloric testing
- Supports bithermal protocols for complete vestibular evaluation
- Automatic temperature regulation when integrated with compatible VNG software systems
- Accurate measurement of caloric-induced nystagmus during testing
- USB connectivity with Interacoustics VNG/ENG platforms
- Built-in independent water tank system—no plumbing or drainage required
- Standalone operation or full software integration with VNG systems
- Pre-set irrigation modes: 30°C (cold) and 44°C (warm)
- Ideal for use in clinics, hospitals, and rehabilitation centers
Clinical Applications
Aqua Stim is widely used in audiology and neurotology settings for:
- Vestibular function testing
- Evaluation of balance disorders
- Investigation of dizziness and vertigo
- Peripheral vestibular system assessment
- Caloric stimulation procedures
Benefits
- Highly accurate and consistent vestibular stimulation
- Seamless integration with Interacoustics VNG systems
- Improved clinical workflow efficiency
