Safe. Simple. Less Expensive.

Traditionally, the only means to place ear tubes for children was in the operating room. This approach presents many obstacles for families — including concerns over general anesthesia, stress associated with surgery and often-significant costs.

The Hummingbird procedure helps solve many of these challenges.

Safe

Performed safely on thousands of children, this alternative to traditional ear tube surgery removes general anesthesia for the most common pediatric procedure in the U.S. Families may be present during the process, reducing stress for both the child and parents.

Simple

The Hummingbird procedure, which is completed in minutes, eliminates the need for fasting, pre-operative testing and post-operative care. Children may immediately return to normal activities following treatment.

Less Expensive

The overall costs of the Hummingbird procedure can be up to 65% less than traditional surgical approaches. The procedure is shifted from expensive facilities to a more cost-effective location, the office.
