Where Tech Meets Skill
Ear
5% of the adult population may be affected by persistent Eustachian Tube Dysfunction (ETD) – 1 in 20.2 ACCLARENT AERA® Eustachian Tube Dilation System was designed to relieve symptoms of persistent ETD.
Nose
More than 30 million adults in the United States are diagnosed with sinusitis each year.3 Another common condition is nasal airway obstruction (NAO), which can be a source of significant patient discomfort and financial burden. Fortunately, Acclarent has products that address both of these conditions.
Throat
An incidence of 4.9 cases per million, per year, is estimated for postintubation tracheal stenosis.4 Endotracheal intubation is responsible for 72.7% of the cases of airway stenosis.5 Learn more about how INSPIRA AIR® Balloon Dilation System can help.
