In-Office Insertion of Tympanostomy Tubes in Children Using Single-Pass Device

Publish Date: February 2, 2021

In this study, we report on 229 children treated in‐office with a novel device. Results demonstrate that in‐office TT placement in awake young children using topical anesthetic, enabled by a single pass delivery device, was safe, successful and well tolerated. These results affirm an in‐office alternative for clinicians and parents who have concerns with the risk, inconvenience and cost of surgery in an operating room under general anesthesia.
