CLIKX® Tympanostomy Tube Delivery System for the Placement of Tympanostomy Tubes
A Prospective Clinical Study of the Clikx Tympanostomy Tube Delivery System for Patients Requiring the Placement of Tympanostomy Tubes
This study looks at the safety and performance of the CLiKX device. The device is used to place ear tubes (also called ventilation tubes) in children and adults. These tubes help treat chronic ear fluid (otitis media with effusion) and other conditions where a doctor decides an ear tube is needed.
In this study, surgeons will use the CLiKX device to place an ear tube in the patient's ear. The study will check if the surgeon can place the tube correctly in the right position. The procedure will first be attempted with no anesthesia or with local anesthesia. If needed, the surgeon may then use mild sedation or general anesthesia.
The study will also look at how well patients tolerate the procedure by checking for side affects during the procedure.
Finally, the study will look at how the device affects the procedure and patient safety. Researchers will review how the procedure is performed and will follow patients for up to 30 days after the procedure to continue to check for any side effects..

Подробное описание
This is a prospective, single-arm, multicenter study designed to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the CLiKX device for the placement of tympanostomy tubes in pediatric and adult patients undergoing tympanostomy tube insertion for the treatment of chronic otitis media or other conditions requiring tympanostomy tube placement.
Eligible participants include children and adults ≥6 months of age who are scheduled to undergo tympanostomy tube insertion and have an ear canal diameter ≥4 mm.
The primary objective of the study is to evaluate procedural success (effectiveness), defined as successful incision of the tympanic membrane (myringotomy) and delivery of the tympanostomy tube into the intended position, while minimizing device-related adverse events during the procedure (safety).
Secondary objectives include the assessment of safety through 30 days post-procedure, as well as evaluation of procedural workflow and device performance.
Participants will complete study visits at the following time points: Baseline, Tympanostomy Procedure Visit, Post-Tympanostomy Procedure Visit (at discharge), and a 30-day Follow-Up Visit. Adverse events, concomitant medications, and procedural tolerability will be monitored throughout the study period.
This study is designed to support the intended use of the CLiKX device for performing myringotomy and facilitating delivery of tympanostomy tubes through the tympanic membrane in a clinical setting.

Экспериментальный: Tympanostomy Tube Treatment
Subjects undergoing myringotomy with tympanostomy tube placement
|
The CLiKX device is an automated, sensor-optimized, partially reusable handheld surgical device used for tympanostomy tube placement.
It consists of multiple components assembled before use and disassembled after the procedure.
The device includes integrated, pre-programmed software that controls its mechanical actions.
The software is locked, cannot be modified by users, and does not perform diagnostic or therapeutic decision-making.
Instead, it provides visual cues and applies controlled force to assist the procedure.
Compared to manual techniques, the CLiKX device automates key steps, including creating a precise slit incision using regulated force.
This approach is designed to reduce operator variability, minimize trauma to the tympanic membrane, and improve accuracy of tube placement.
Clinicians retain full control over targeting throughout the procedure.
