Frequently asked questions about tympanostomy tube

What is a tympanostomy tube used for?

A tympanostomy tube is used for otitis media with effusion, a condition where fluid builds up in the middle ear. It is a small tube surgically placed in the eardrum to ventilate the middle ear and prevent fluid accumulation. The device is being developed by Integra LifeSciences Holdings Corporation.

Who makes the tympanostomy tube?

Integra LifeSciences Holdings Corporation (NASDAQ: IART) is developing the tympanostomy tube. The company is conducting clinical research on this device for the treatment of otitis media with effusion, a middle ear condition characterized by fluid buildup.

What phase is the tympanostomy tube in?

The tympanostomy tube is in Phase 2 clinical development. It is an investigational device and has not been approved by the FDA. One Phase 2 trial has been completed, evaluating the device's delivery system in patients with otitis media with effusion.

What clinical trials is the tympanostomy tube in?

The tympanostomy tube has been studied in one completed Phase 2 clinical trial, NCT01202578, titled 'Evaluation of the Tympanostomy Tube Delivery System.' The trial enrolled 53 participants in the United States, including children as young as 6 months, with conditions of otitis media with effusion and acute otitis media.

Is the tympanostomy tube FDA approved?

The tympanostomy tube is not FDA approved. It is an investigational device currently in Phase 2 clinical development. A completed Phase 2 trial (NCT01202578) has evaluated its delivery system, but the device has not yet received regulatory approval.
