Brief Summary

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

The purpose of this study is to determine if the Hummingbird ear tube delivery system is a safe and effective way to put ear tubes in place.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and performance of the TTI device for the placement of ear tubes in patients undergoing a tympanostomy tube placement procedure.The trial will be a multi-site, prospective, treatment only study of the Preceptis ear tube introducer . Patients will already have a scheduled tympanostomy procedure. Enrollment in the study at each site will begin after receipt of Institutional Review Board (IRB) approval. Patients will be considered enrolled at the time the informed consent document is signed. A maximum of two hundred fifty (250) subjects will be included in the study at up to 5 sites.
