Filter by:This is a randomized, double-blind clinical trial on the prophylactic use of antibiotics in postoperative endoscopic sinus vs placebo surgery. Patients with chronic rhinosinusitis with or without polyps who have consented to endoscopic sinus surgery according to Canadian practice guidelines may be included in the study after approval by the Research Ethics Board of the University Hospital Center. Quebec and signature of consent.
This study is intended to assess the impact of a 90 day course of high volume budesonide irrigations for patients who have failed other medical therapy and assessing the impact of the budesonide irrigations on the need for sinus surgery.
The objective of this study is to determine whether the use of postoperative antibiotics following ESS decreases postoperative infection rates. This is a multi-institutional prospective study involving Albert Einstein College of Medicine/Montefiore Medical Center, Columbia University Medical Center, Weill Cornell Medical College, Mount Sinai Health System, and New York University Langone Medical Center. The study design will be a multi-institutional prospective randomized controlled trial with parallel random groups assigned to receive postoperative antibiotics or no postoperative antibiotics. The investigators hypothesize that patients who receive postoperative antibiotics will have lower postoperative infection rates and improved postoperative sinonasal symptoms and nasal endoscopy scores.
A prospective, single arm, multicenter study designed to demonstrate that the Sinopsys® Lacrimal Stent can safely create transcaruncular access to the ethmoid sinus to enable sinus irrigation and reduce symptoms in patients with moderate to severe chronic rhinosinusitis.
Antibody deficiencies and complement deficiencies are the most frequent Primary immunodeficiencies (PIDs) in adults, and are associated with greatly increased susceptibility to recurrent and/or severe bacterial infections - especially upper and lower respiratory tract infections and meningitis. The literature data suggest that PIDs are under-diagnosed in adults. The current European and US guidelines advocate screening adults for PIDs if they present recurrent benign especially upper and lower respiratory tract infections, or if they have experienced at least two severe bacterial infections and/or have a recurrent need for intravenous antibiotics. The objective of the demonstrate the interest of PIDs screening in adult patients who present such recurrent infections and/or after the first severe bacterial infection, especially when the patients do not present with known, etiologically relevant comorbidities.
