Arms of the Study
Arm 1
Arm Type
Experimental
Arm Label
Tympanostomy Tube Delivery System (TTDS)
Arm Description
Tympanostomy tube placement with Acclarent tube delivery system
Outcomes
Primary Outcome Measures
Device Success
Successful deployment of the tube in each indicated ear using the TTDS. Evaluated for test cohort subjects only (not lead-in subjects).
Secondary Outcome Measures
Cross-Over to Manual Myringotomy and Tube Placement
Conversion of the procedure from Tympanostomy Tube Delivery System to manual myringotomy and tube placement. Evaluated for test cohort subjects only (not lead-in subjects). Decision to convert to a manual myringotomy and tube placement procedure occurs at the conclusion of the Tube Delivery System procedure.
Tube Retention
Presence of the Tympanostomy Tube across the tympanic membrane at two weeks post-procedure. Evaluated for test cohort subjects only (not lead-in subjects).
