What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. 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.

    Measured: Day 0

  2. 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.

    Measured: Day 0

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. 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.

    Measured: 14 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Acclarent Tympanostomy Tube Delivery system (TTDS) in people with Otitis Media, run by Integra LifeSciences Corporation at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 5 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 6 Aug 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 25 Nov 2014). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Percentage of Subjects With In-office Tube Placement Procedure Success (time frame: Day 0). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 6 Aug 2024.
