About this trial

This is an interventional treatment trial for Otitis Media focused on measuring Tympanostomy tube placement

Eligibility Criteria

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

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Scheduled to undergo tympanostomy tube insertion
  • At least 6 months old
  • Behavioral capacity and cooperative temperament to undergo an awake procedure (based on physician judgement)

Exclusion Criteria:

  • History of sensitivity or reaction to anesthesia chosen for the procedure
  • Significantly atrophic, bimeric, or completely atelectatic tympanic membrane
  • Otitis externa
  • Anatomy that precludes sufficient visualization of and access to the tympanic membrane
  • Anatomy that necessitates tympanostomy tube placement in the posterior half of the tympanic membrane

Arm Type

Experimental

Arm Label

Tympanostomy tube placement

Arm Description

placement of tympanostomy tube under local anesthesia in office/clinic setting

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Percentage of Subjects With In-office Tube Placement Procedure Success
Procedure Success is defined as the successful placement of any tympanostomy tube in all enrolled ears in a given subject. Procedure Success is determined on a per subject basis: the rate was calculated based on the number of subjects achieving Procedure Success out of the total number of enrolled subjects. Only subjects for whom tubes were placed under local anesthesia were evaluated for Procedure Success.
Percentage of Tubes Successfully Placed Using a TTDS Device
Device (TTDS) success is defined as the successful delivery of a pre-loaded TT tube across the tympanic membrane using the TTDS. Device success will be evaluated per device attempted. Office/clinical subjects only. A Device (Type of Unit analyzed) is defined as a TDS attempt. This is not synonymous with "tube." Tube is the outcome of the device use.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Number of Retained (TTDS-placed) Tubes
Tube retention is the presence of a TT placed successfully by the TTDS device across the tympanic membrane at the two week follow-up visit. Tube retention was confirmed by physician investigator evaluation. N=74 tubes were successfully placed intraprocedurally. Analysis population includes office/clinical subjects only.
