The KURZ® Meter is a device for determining the length of a stapedial prosthesis during stapes surgery.
The KURZ® Meter simplifies the important measurement during surgery and makes it safer. By using the slide, which is operated with the index finger, the measuring tip can be positioned on the footplate precisely and without risk. During this process, the stop hook is placed against the medial side of the long process of incus. The measured distance is read on the measuring scale. The scale is marked on both sides, enabling both right- and left-handed persons to read the measurements easily. The required prosthesis length is determined by the distance between the long process of the incus (medial side) to the footplate plus the depth into the inner ear fluid.
The slide mechanism enables an exact and safe approach to the stapes footplate.
The KURZ® Meter can be disassembled into its individual components. This greatly simplifies cleaning and renders sterilization safer.
