Fluid trapped behind the eardrum is a breeding ground for bacteria and infection.
An ear ventilation tube (or vent tube) is a very small tube that’s placed in the
eardrum. It’s also called a myringotomy tube, tympanostomy tube, or pressure
equalization (PE) tube. Vent tubes drains fluid trapped behind the eardrum ,
which helps prevent ear infections (otitis media).
