Filter by:Investigators tried to evaluate the efficacy and safety of xylitol nasal irrigation as an adjuvant therapy after FESS, particularly the influence of nasal irrigation on Eustachian tube function.
This observatory aims to collect, as widely as possible, the Italian cases of patients with uncontrolled CRS. Patient will be enrolled by the centers of the Italian Network of Rhinosinusitis (Rhinosinusitis Italian Network: RINET), and they will be treated using a multidisciplinary team approach (allergists, otolaryngologists and pneumologists) in a real-world clinical set-up. This real-life chronic rhinosinusitis registry aims at longitudinal data collection from patients attending specialist care centres across Italy.
It is a first in human (FIH) study to evaluate safety, and potential efficacy of Airiver Nasal DCB in the treatment of recurrent CRSwNP or CRSsNP. Participants will receive AIRIVER Nasal drug-coated balloon treatment.
the study is intended to test the effect of Nigella sativa nasal oil drops on selected outcomes among patients with chronic rhinosinusitis using prospective clinical trial design. To achieve the aim of the current trial the following research hypotheses are postulated: H1. The total severity of symptoms mean scores of patients with CRS who will use Nigella sativa nasal oil drops will be different from the total severity of symptoms mean scores of a control group. H2. The total sleep quality mean scores of patients with CRS who will use Nigella sativa nasal oil drops will be different from the total sleep quality mean scores of a control group. H3. The total patient satisfaction mean scores of patients with CRS who will use Nigella sativa nasal oil drops will be different from the total patient satisfaction mean scores of a control group.
The purpose of this study is to investigate whether daily use of a microcurrent neuromodulation device, which applies a small current of electricity to the forehead and maxillary region, will decrease the pain experienced by patients in the days following functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS). This study is a prospective randomized controlled study. Enrolled subjects will be randomized (1:1) to receive either an active neuromodulation study device or a sham device that appears identical to the active device while emitting no therapeutic microcurrent. Subjects will self-treat with the device at home and will be followed for 2 weeks after FESS.
The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy and outcomes of Chitodex gel plus Kenalog versus Nexfoam plus Kenalog in patients with chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) undergoing sinus surgery. Both dressings are already known to be beneficial in controlling postoperative bleeding and promote wound healing.
The purpose of our study was to validate the Chinese version of the Sinus and Nasal Quality of Life Survey (SN-5)and correlation with the incidence of pediatric obstructive sleep apnea and asthma. The study will enroll pediatric patients of rhino-sinusitis and their parents to finish Questionnaire 1, including Chinese version of SN-5, visual analogue scale (VAS), Pediatric allergy disease Pediatric Allergic Disease Quality of Life Questionnaire (PADQLQ), OSA-18 quality of Life Survey, and asthma-diagnostic questionnaire . Some patients re-tested SN-5 in 1 week later. After four weeks, participants finish these questionnaire 2, including SN-5, VAS, and PADQLQ. In addition, the author will invite health children without rhino-sinusitis disease and their parents to fill in Questionnaire 1. The Chinese version of SN-5 will be validated to establish its reliability and validity.
Sense of smell disorders are common and are said to affect up to 20% of the general population. They are often disabling and have a real impact on the quality of life. Smell disorders are most often assessed using a visual analogue scale and more rarely with objective tests (Sniffing Stick Test). Many ENT units do not have these objective tests because they are time-consuming and are not covered by health insurance. Some teams, such as that of Dr Thomas Hummel of the Carl Gustav Carus University Clinic in Dresden Germany, have developed self-assessment questionnaires for the sense of smell in order to improve the overall care of patients with olfactory disorders. Two of these self-questionnaires seem to us to be particularly relevant for use in everyday practice. Since then, these questionnaires have already been validated in different languages (English, Chinese, Korean...), but have never been translated and validated in French. Translating and validating these questionnaires into French would make it possible to improve the management and follow-up of French patients with olfactory disorders and to assess the impact of loss of smell on their quality of life.
N-acetylcysteine (NAC), known to have mucolytic and antioxidant effects, is widely used to treat respiratory diseases and manage post-surgery pulmonary complications. It is also administered as a treatment for acetaminophen addiction and a preventive measure for contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN). While NAC inhalation is commonly used for mucolytic purpose for various respiratory disease because it has relatively less side effects compared to oral or injection administrations, it is more used as a part of allopathy than as a major therapy. As a result, there is neither enough relevant clinical data nor specific reference in treatment guidelines. Therefore, this study aims to evaluate the overall treatment effectiveness and safety of NAC inhalation compared with standard treatment, and to perform follow-up observations on administration cases, patient characteristics, and adverse events of NAC inhalation used in real clinical settings.
A single quality questionnaire evaluating the symptoms of chronic rhinosinusitis in children currently exists. It has been validated in English for children aged 2 to 12. It comprises five areas of quality of life, each rated by a score ranging from 1 to 7 : sinus infection, nasal obstruction, allergic symptoms, emotional distress and activity limitation, coupled with an overall assessment of quality of life with an analogue visual scale (score from 1 to 10). This SN-5 (sinus and nasal quality of life survey) score showed excellent statistics of reproducibility, internal validity and ease of response. It is currently used in several international publications evaluating chronic sinus pathology in children. The objective of the study is to validate the translation of the SN-5 questionnaire in French.
