What this trial studies

This is an observational post-market follow-up of the Solo+ Tympanostomy Tube Device, collecting real-world data from centers that have used the device in Europe. It includes prospective and retrospective information from patients and guardians regarding the procedure, outcomes, and satisfaction, as well as clinician notes about device use and tube status after surgery. Data are gathered without random assignment and reflect routine clinical practice. The study aims to understand safety, performance, and user experience in both current and past recipients. The study is sponsored by AventaMed DAC and conducted at a single site in Trieste, Italy.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: Participants may contribute to knowledge that could improve understanding of how the Solo+ Tube performs in real-world use and inform future care.

How similar studies have gone: Other post-market follow-up observations of ear tube devices have helped characterize safety and performance in real-world settings, though specific data on Solo+ are limited.
