The Sheehy Type Collar Button Ventilation Tube (Model 14141) is a small, implantable tympanostomy tube made of white fluoroplastic. It is designed to be inserted through the tympanic membrane (eardrum) to provide ventilation and/or drainage of the middle ear, commonly used in the treatment of chronic otitis media with effusion or recurrent ear infections. The "collar button" design helps maintain the tube’s position and minimizes the risk of migration, while the fluoroplastic material is biocompatible and durable for intermediate to long-term use.
