Prospective Quality of Life Study in Pituitary Surgery

Status Not yet recruiting

Clinical Trial Summary

Post-operative assessment and debridement are key components in patient care for surgery patients. However, a standardized protocol for management after endoscopic skull base surgery is unavailable. In this study, investigators will observe the effect of various follow-up schedules on the patient's quality of life after surgery. Patients who received surgery for pituitary adenoma will be placed randomly in 1 of 3 groups (short-term = follow-up in 2 weeks and 8 weeks after surgery; intermediate = 4 weeks and 8 weeks; long-term = 8 weeks). At each visit, patients will be asked to complete a packet of surveys and questionnaires that provide metrics on their quality of life in addition to receiving standard patient care (post-operative assessment and nasal debridement). Researchers hope to find that a follow-up schedule that has patients visiting the clinic closer to their surgery date will increase the patient's quality of life after surgery.
