About this trial

This is an interventional treatment trial for Otitis Media With Effusion

Eligibility Criteria

6 Months - undefined (Child, Adult, Older Adult)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Diagnosed with either chronic otitis media with effusion or acute otitis media and scheduled to undergo tympanostomy tube insertion

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Reaction to anesthesia
  • Markedly atrophic, bimeric, severely retracted, atelectatic or perforated tympanic membrane
  • Otitis externa
  • Active acute otitis media
  • Otitis media pathology requiring T-tubes
  • Stenosed ear canal
  • Anatomy that precludes visualization and access to tympanic membrane
  • Anatomy that necessitates tympanostomy tube placement in posterior half of membrane

Sites / Locations

  • South Coast ENT
  • Advanced ENT and Allergy
  • Ear Medical Group
  • Evergreen Sinus Center

Arms of the Study

Arm 1

Arm Type

Experimental

Arm Label

tympanostomy tube

Arm Description

performance and safety of tympanostomy tube delivery system

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Safety of Tympanostomy Tube (TT) Delivery System
Occurrence of pre-defined Safety Events of acoustic trauma, deployment of the TT into the middle ear, damage to middle ear structures, unintended tympanic membrane perforation requiring treatment, abrasion to the external acoustic meatus requiring significant treatment, and major bleeding requiring significant treatment.
Device Success
Device Success is defined as the successful delivery of the tympanostomy tube across the tympanic membrane using the tympanostomy tube delivery system (TTDS).Device Success is evaluated on a per device basis.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Proportion of Subjects With Procedure Success
Procedure Success was defined as the successful placement of any tympanostomy tube in all enrolled ears in a given subject. Non-Acclarent tubes successfully placed manually following non-success of the TTDS were counted toward Procedure Success. Procedure Success was determined on a per subject basis: the rate was calculated by the number of subjects achieving Procedure Success out of the total number of enrolled subjects.
Tube Retention
Presence of the tympanostomy tube across the tympanic membrane at the follow-up visit.
