Description
Jobson Horne Probe, Double Ended
Intrace USA crafts the Jobson Horne Probe for cerumen (ear wax) removal and ear canal cleaning during routine otologic examination. One end carries a fenestrated ring curette that scrapes and lifts hardened wax away from the canal wall, while the opposite end forms a spiral tip that carries cotton wool to clear fluid, blood, or debris and to apply medication where needed. The slender, slightly curved shaft reaches comfortably through even a small ear speculum without blocking the clinician’s view. For added flexibility, this model comes in multiple lengths (Size: 140mm, 175mm), so clinicians can match the instrument to the depth of access the exam requires. Because every unit goes through inspection before it ships, Intrace USA can back it with dependable, consistent performance.
Key Features of the Jobson Horne Probe

- Solid central handle for a secure, comfortable grip during fine ear-canal work

- Reusable, autoclavable design built for everyday ENT and primary care use
Who Uses This Instrument, and Why
Otolaryngologists (ENT physicians), audiologists, and primary care clinicians reach for the Jobson Horne Probe whenever cerumen needs to be cleared from the ear canal or the canal needs a closer look during otoscopy. The curette end lifts hardened wax that a cotton swab alone can’t reach, while the cotton-carrier end wipes away debris, fluid, or blood and can deliver medication directly to the site. Because ear canal depth and curvature vary from patient to patient, having both lengths on hand means the clinician can always choose the reach that keeps the working tip in clear view. In short, the right length makes the exam gentler on the patient, not just easier for the clinician. Because clinic and ENT suite routines differ from setting to setting, stocking both lengths also helps teams stay consistent from case to case.
Care and Maintenance
Clean and dry the Jobson Horne Probe after each use to protect its long-term performance. Wash it with a neutral pH detergent, rinse thoroughly, and then follow your facility’s sterilization protocol. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive pads, since they can dull the stainless steel finish over time. With proper care, this instrument holds its accuracy and lasts through years of routine use. For added protection between uses, store it separately from other instruments to avoid nicks or scratches to the working ends.
