Filter by:The study should create data for the selection of a clinically relevant primary endpoint to assess the efficacy and safety of Buparid/PARI SINUS as compared to Budes Nasal Spray in the therapy of chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) with polyposis nasi in adult patients. Ideally, the selected parameter should allow a correlation between an objective methodology and the clinical outcome of the study patients.
Surgeons commonly prescribe post operative prophylactic antibiotics after sinus surgery. There is minimal data to support this. The investigators' study will aim to demonstrate that patients' quality of life and rate of post operative infection is the same whether they receive or do not receive antibiotics post operatively. The investigators hypothesis is that the disease specific quality of life of patients taking post-operative antibiotics is not inferior to the quality of life of patients who do not take post-operative antibiotics, and the rate of post-operative infections are the same. The investigators' specific aim is to compare validated symptom scores between post-operative populations who are given or are not given antibiotics. Rates of infections in the first 10 days after surgery will be recorded. The investigators will also compare endoscopic grades of sinus cavities during the post-operative follow up exams as an additional outcome measure.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether inhaled corticosteroid (specially nebulized) could be a good alternative to oral corticosteroid and whether they are effective in the treatment of sinusitis
The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of middle turbinate Radio Frequency (RF) turbinoplasty with middle turbinate resection and medialization
The purpose of this study was to assess the safety and performance of the steroid-releasing S8 Sinus Implant when used in post-sinus surgery patients who presented with recurrent sinus obstruction.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether the use of light and a topically applied photosensitizer can relieve symptoms and clinically improve patients with chronic rhinosinusitis.
The purpose of this study is to determine the clinical characteristic of recurrent acute rhinosinusitis in children.
The purpose of this study is to determine the best duration(3 versus 6 weeks) of antibiotics as part of maximal medical therapy for treating chronic sinusitis and thus preventing patients from having to have sinus surgery. The hypothesis is that in the context of maximal medical therapy 3 weeks of antibiotics is not worse than 6 weeks of antibiotics at successfully treating chronic sinusitis.
The purpose of this study is to determine if a trial of directed high-dose nasal steroids improves residual smell loss in patients with chronic rhinosinusitis following sinus surgery. Other outcomes of this study include: identifying the differences in sinus airflow between patients who improve following nasal steroid treatment and those who do not, and to see if, in patients who improve following surgery, the improvement remains throughout follow-up.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the clinical efficacy of oral treatment with a statin, SIMVASTATIN 40mg, in a target population of patients with severe chronic rhinosinusitis resistant to surgery followed by conventional medical and surgical treatment.
