the tympanic reflex is a physical response to overly loud noises. Located in the inner ear, the reflex is the contraction of a small muscle which disconnects the three bones in the ear (incus,malleus, stapes). This results in the muffling of sound to protect the cochlea from damage.
An inaccuracy that may result with a tympanic thermometer is improper positioning of the probe in the ear canal, which can lead to inaccurate readings. It is important to follow the manufacturer's instructions for proper placement to ensure accurate results.
