Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

1. To determine if the device can detect if middle ear fluid is present in children who are scheduled for tube placement (myringotomy)
2. If fluid is present to characterize the fluid as thick or thin
3. Evaluate the safety of the device
