Summary Although otoscopy is a new skill for athletic trainers, it is one that can be easily mastered with proper instruction and guided practice. ACIs and CIs must also be proficient with using the otoscope if they are to direct and supervise the students’ clinical education experiences involving ear evaluation
Summary The 10 step process for otoscopy outlined in this presentation is intended to serve as foundation for learning and becoming comfortable with using the otoscope for ear evaluation.
Summary Proficiency requires PRACTICE, PRACTICE, & more PRACTICE!
