For children older than 1 year old, gently pull the ear up to ensure that the
ear canal is straight (See Figure 1). Position the ear probe carefully so that
it is aligned with the eardrum to ensure accurate measurement readings.

For children younger than 1 year old, gently pull the ear straight back to
ensure that the ear canal is straight (see Figure 2).
