Effect of Airway Integrated Nasal Packing With Different Material

Postoperative Respiratory Complications Clinical Trial

Official title: Comparison of Nasal Packing Methods:Nasal Packing Was Done With Nasopore@, Airway-integrated Nasopore@ and Airway-integrated Vaseline Gauze

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of integrated airway in nasal packing material foe patients receiving nasal septoplasty surgery.

Clinical Trial Description

Nasal packing with integrated airway had been claimed to improve body oxygenation following septal surgery. This randomized control study examined the effect of airway integrated with nasal packing, in terms of its improvement on oxygen saturation. Sixty patients with septal deviation and hypertrophic turbinate were randomized into three groups. Group 1 patients were packed with only nasopore@ after surgery. Nasopore@ with integrated airway was used for group 2 patients; and Vaseline gauze integrated with airway for group 3 patients. Hemodynamic parameters were sequentially checked. Nasal pain sensation was recorded using visual analog scale. ;
