Trial Outcomes & Findings for inVENT-In-Office Study (NCT NCT01324271)

NCT ID: NCT01324271

Last Updated: 2024-08-06

Results Overview

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.

Participant Flow

Lead-ins \& study cohort included (n=85). Same criteria/procedure for all 85 subjects. Study phases did not have different start/end dates. Periods/dates for lead-ins \& cohort not different. Physicians with no TTDS experience were required to perform lead-ins in OR (n=26/85). Sites on-boarded and completed lead-ins at different times.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Day 0

Population: All enrolled subjects for which a tympanostomy tube was attempted to be placed using a Tympanostomy Tube Delivery System (TTDS) under local anesthesia in office/clinical setting

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

Timeframe: 14 days

Population: Total in-office (IO) subjects.

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.
