Audiology Devices

Bionix Medical Technology single use medical devices across the Australia-Pacific region.

Bionix focuses on helping physicians and allied health professionals meet the high-pressure demands of a constantly changing healthcare environment.

Their selection of single use medical devices for ear care, nutrition and feeding, pain relief, wound care and nasal visualisation are innovative ways of approaching old problems.

For instance, Bionix has combined the safety of our single-use ear curettes with a powerful LED light source and a magnification lens creating visualisation in what has typically been a blind procedure. This design gives you the ability to handle even the most difficult cerumen removal procedures with confidence and enhanced patient safety.

Lighted Suction for Cerumen Removal

Combines illumination and magnification with the efficiency of a suction device, taking less time to see and safely remove ear canal and nasal obstructions.

Bionix Lighted Suction combines illumination and magnification with the efficiency of a suction device, allowing healthcare providers take less time to see and safely remove ear canal and nasal passage obstructions.

Problem: Blindly-curetting in the ear canal or nasal passage can result in pushing the object deeper, causing damage, more swelling and making removal more difficult, especially with an uncooperative child.

Solution: Bionix Lighted Suction is a perfect alternative-to quickly remove cerumen or foreign bodies with ease and safety for sensitive patients.

Result: Complete visualisation shortens procedure time and increases efficacy.

Lighted Forceps for Foreign Body Removal

Combines illumination and magnification, taking less time to see and safely remove foreign bodies.

Bionix Lighted Forceps combine illumination and magnification to help healthcare providers take less time to see and safely remove ear canal and nasal passage obstructions.

Problem: Blind curettage in the ear canal or nasal passage can result in pushing the object deeper, which can cause damage and swelling making removal difficult, especially with an uncooperative child.

Solution: The Lighted Forceps brilliantly illuminates the ear canal eliminating the practice of blindly excavating the sensitive area.

Result: Complete visualisation shortens procedure time and increases efficacy.

Lighted Ear Curette™

Combine illumination and magnification to take less time to see and safely remove cerumen from the ear canal.

Bionix Lighted Ear Curette™ combines illumination and magnification to help healthcare providers take less time to see and safely remove cerumen from the ear canal.

Problem: Ear curettage requires three hands; one hand to brace patients head and straighten the ear canal, one to manoeuvre the curette and one to position a light to avoid blindly-curetting in the ear.

Solution: The Lighted Ear Curette with Magnification brilliantly illuminates the ear canal eliminating the practice of blindly curetting the sensitive area.

Result: Complete visualisation shortens procedure time and increases efficacy.

Lighted Articulating Ear Curette™

Combines light, magnification and a 90° articulating tip to take less time to see and safely remove ear canal and nasal passage obstructions.

Bionix Lighted Articulating Ear Curette™ combines illumination, magnification and a 90° articulating tip to help healthcare providers take less time to see and safely remove ear canal and nasal passage obstructions.

Problem: Blindly-curetting in the ear canal or nasal passage can result in pushing the object deeper, causing damage, swelling and making removal more difficult, especially with an uncooperative child.

Solution: The Lighted Articulating Curette brilliantly illuminates the ear canal, which provides the ability to work behind an occlusion, without using a blind sweeping motion that can abrade the ear canal.

Result: Complete visualisation shortens procedure time and increases efficacy.

Disposable Speculum

Improve nasal airway field of view.

Bionix Disposable Speculum helps healthcare providers improve nasal airway field of view with single patient use, lightweight speculum.

Problem: Steel speculums seem to be lost, misplaced, or-in sterilisation when needed, and are cold and rigid causing discomfort to patients.

Solution: Bionix Disposable Speculum provides the same great view of the nasal cavity, while also having smooth, warm tips that are less alarming to the patients, and provide a comfortable squeeze grip for the health care provider.

Result: Bionix Disposable Speculum provides direct visualisation and is an easy-to-use, single use alternative to conventional metal nasal specula.

Igloo® Wound Irrigation

Protects staff by preventing backsplash of blood-borne pathogens. Igloo Wound Irrigation System (sterile) 10/box. Note: Saline not included. Bionix Igloo Wound Irrigation helps healthcare providers protect staff by preventing backsplash of blood-borne-pathogens during high volume irrigation of non-complex wounds.

Problem: Simple wounds can become complex problems if harmful bacteria and necrotic tissue are not removed. Wound irrigation can also put health care workers at risk for cross-contamination of blood-borne pathogens from backsplash.

Solution: Igloo Wound Irrigation System utilises the Igloo Irrigation Shield on a high-volume trigger, which conveniently attaches a variety of saline bottles, allowing you to irrigate at 4-15 psi without having to stop and refill every 60cc’s.

Result: Continuous high volume wound irrigation that effectively removes bacteria and necrotic tissues, while preventing backsplash and promoting healing.

OtoClear® Ear Wax Removal

Safe, effective & non-traumatic ear wax removal.

Safe Ear Curettes™

Safely and gently remove cerumen, with styles to match different types of wax and personal preference.
Bionix Safe Ear Curettes™ allow healthcare providers to safely and gently remove cerumen with styles to match different types of wax and personal preference.

Problem: Hard, rigid stainless steel curettes not only cause patients pain and discomfort but can also easily damage the ear canal and tympanic membrane.

Solution: Bionix Safe Ear Curettes are flexible, to reduce injury to the ear canal, making them safer than stainless steel curettes.

Result: Seven colour-coded-tip styles to meet specific needs, giving you “the right tool for any job” for every cerumen situation.

Features & Benefits

Made of smooth, flexible polypropylene designed to bend when they encounter an obstacle, unlike hard, rigid stainless steel curettes.
A complete line of seven colour-coded styles (including Adult and Youth sizes) each designed for a specific type of patient and cerumen condition.
Single-use curettes reduce the risk of cross-contamination while also eliminating sterilisation costs and hassles.

SafeStraw™

Safely manage swallowed liquid volume and help reduce aspiration risk.

Bionix SafeStraw allows healthcare providers to safely manage swallowed liquid volume and help reduce aspiration risk of patients with oral motor dysfunction.

Problem: Patients with oral motor dysfunction have difficulty controlling a liquid bolus and often swallow prematurely causing them to aspirate.

Solution: SafeStraw limits volume to 6.2ml’s, per sip helping to reduce the likelihood of aspiration by promoting a controllable liquid bolus.

Result: Limited bolus size helps reduce aspiration risks allowing patients to safely, discreetly, and independently drink from a variety of containers such as cups and bottles.

Features & Benefits

Successfully delivers approximately 6.2ml (roughly 1 teaspoon) of nutrition per sip.
Alleviates the laborious task of manually controlling volume intake by squeezing a straw or spoon-feeding.
Assists with the prevention of aspiration and oral motor control of a liquid.
Two versions allow use with both thin or nectar thickened fluids.
Discreet drinking tool. Fits in a variety of drinking containers including cups and bottles. Can be taken anywhere!
Disassembles for easy cleaning with hot water and soap, or the top rack of a non-industrial dishwasher.
Great training tool.

ShotBlocker®

Minimise needle injection pain at half the cost of-the status quo.
Bionix ShotBlocker helps healthcare providers minimise needle injection pain associated with injection administration at half the cost of competitors.

Problem: Needle apprehension and pain can create anxiety associated with injections for all patients, children through adults. Anaesthetic creams and freezing sprays can be costly, can damage the skin, and take time before working.

Solution: ShotBlocker, a novel application of the Gate Theory of Pain Management, uses a number of blunt contact points to saturate the sensory signals around an injection site distracting the patients from the pain signals of the needle poke.

Results: A simple, non-invasive, drug free method that instantly reduces needle plain and anxiety at half the cost of other methods.

Features & Benefits

Immediate Effect – The contact points on the underside saturates the sensory nerves distracting the patient from the pain signals caused by the needle poke. No waiting for topical anaesthetic to take effect.
Easy to Use – Just press ShotBlocker firmly over the injection site and administer the shot through the opening.
Versatility – Use for home injections or take with you to the doctor or pharmacist.
Saves Money – Less costly than anesthetic creams, freezing sprays, or vibrating distractions. (Faster, too.)
