Filter by:The study aims to evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of the 10-valent and 13-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccines when administered in an accelerated schedule in Papua New Guinean children, who experience early dense upper respiratory tract colonisation with a broad range of pneumococcal serotypes, and to compare antibody titres following a booster dose of polysaccharide vaccine at 9 months with those children who received no booster at the same age.
The study will recruit healthy volunteers to undergo the Iontophoresis procedure using the Acclarent Iontophoresis System with Earset (IPSES).
This study is to assess the reliability and validity of the FAECC scale to evaluate pain associated with acute otitis media in children aged 2 months to 5 years.
This study compares a standard method for palate repair (the Furlow palatoplasty) with a modification of that method to determine which, if either, is more effective in reducing the duration of middle-ear disease (fluid in the ear) in cleft palate patients.
The investigators will study whether, in young children with acute otitis media (AOM), shortening length of antibiotic treatment as a strategy for reducing antimicrobial resistance provides satisfactory clinical outcome. This is a Phase 2b multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial in 600 children aged 6 through 23 months comparing the efficacy of consistent reduced-duration antimicrobial treatment (5 days) with that of consistent standard-duration treatment (10 days) for each episode of AOM developing during a single respiratory season (October 1 through May 31).
The objective of the study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the Acclarent Tula TDS for the placement of tympanostomy tubes under local anesthesia in an office/clinic setting.
Otitis media is more common in young children and it is estimated that 75% of all children experience at least one episode before the age of three. Otitis media is one of the common pediatric diagnoses and recurrent episodes account for the most commonly performed surgical procedure. Despite this a high degree of inaccuracy exists in diagnosis of this condition which depends on subjective assessment of the ear drum via direct visualization using an otoscope. Researcher can use Diffuse optical spectroscopy and diffuse optical imaging for the analysis of ear drum and the middle ear.
The objective of the study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the Acclarent Tympanostomy Tube Delivery System (TDS) for the placement of Tympanostomy Tube TT(s) under local anesthesia delivered by iontophoresis in an office/clinic setting.
Obesity is associated with increased risk of surgical complications. Ventilation tube insertion is one of the most frequent surgical procedures performed on children. However, the impact of obesity on surgical results or surgical related complication following ventilation tube insertion remains poorly understood. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of obesity on the surgical results of ventilation tube insertion for otitis media with effusion (OME) in pediatric patients.
The study has three objectives: 1. To determine if the device can detect if middle ear fluid is present in children who are scheduled for tube placement (myringotomy) 2. If fluid is present to characterize the fluid as thick or thin 3. Evaluate the safety of the device
