NTENDED USE
The Timpani tympanometer is a medical device intended to measure the
biomechanical characteristics of the patient's middle ear to aid the operator to
evaluate its functional conditions for screening purposes.
Timpani is also a pure tone audiometer: by generating and delivering to the
patient sound stimuli of different types and intensities, it helps the operator to
evaluate the patient's auditory sensitivity for screening purposes.

NDICATIONS FOR USE AND END USERS
Timpani is intended for use by healthcare ENT professionals in hospitals, ENT
clinics and audiology clinics as an instrument for auditory screening programs
and as an aid to the diagnosis of possible hearing disorders.
There is no patient population restriction in the use of the device; always be sure
to perform an otoscopy before using the device.
These tests – especially the audiometric tests – must be conducted in a quiet
