NCT ID: NCT06391151 Not yet recruiting - Pregnancy Clinical Trials

Effect of OSA Resulting From Chronic Tonsillitis on Pregnancy Outcomes

Start date: July 1, 2024
Phase:

This cohort study aims to investigate the impact of obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome (OSA) resulting from chronic tonsillitis on pregnancy outcomes. The hypothesis posits that chronic tonsillitis-induced OSA may exacerbate pregnancy complications and increase the risk of adverse pregnancy outcomes.

NCT ID: NCT03437954 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Sleep Disordered Breathing

Outcomes of Post-operative Diet in Children Following Tonsillectomy and Adenoidectomy

Start date: December 15, 2017
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This research is being done because it is not known which dietary recommendations are best to help patients recover after a tonsillectomy and/or adenoidectomy. The purpose of this study is to determine how diet after tonsil/adenoid surgery affects bleeding, pain, and oral intake.

NCT ID: NCT02981810 Not yet recruiting - Chronic Tonsillitis Clinical Trials

Evaluation of Coblation Channeling Treatment for Chronic Tonsillitis.

Start date: December 2016
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

To evaluate coblation channeling treatment for chronic tonsillitis. Does Tonsillar ablation can create changing in the tonsillar medium for recurrent tonsillar infections and stop the recurrent infections?

NCT ID: NCT02818647 Recruiting - Tonsillectomy Clinical Trials

Comparison of Cold Dissection Technique and Needle Monopolar Electrocautery Tonsillectomy

TONSIL
Start date: June 2016
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Patients 13-years-or older who undergo tonsillectomy operation (without another additional surgery) will be enrolled in the study. Randomly, one side is going to be operated with conventional cold-knife technique and hemostasis will be maintained with bipolar diathermy (25-30w). Contralateral tonsil is going to be operated with needle-tip monopolar electrocautery (10-12w) at Blend 1 mode and hemostasis will also be maintained with needle-tip monopolar cautery. Postoperative tonsillar fossa healing and pain is going to be evaluated for both sides separately with Visual Analogue Scale. All operations are going to be performed by a single surgeon and all evaluations are going to be carried out by another surgeon in a totally blinded fashion to avoid possible bias.

NCT ID: NCT01389349 Completed - Postoperative Pain Clinical Trials

Acupuncture for Tonsillectomy Pain

Start date: July 2011
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Pain after tonsillectomy can be severe and last ten days. Various new surgical instruments have been developed over the years in an attempt to reduce postoperative pain with mixed results and increased costs; no single tonsillectomy technique is superior to the rest. Patients are discharged to home usually on the day of surgery and often suffer significant pain and nausea. Pain medication is often prescribed which can cause nausea, vomiting and constipation. Children in pain are reluctant to take in fluids and may require intravenous hydration at an emergency department. "Battlefield acupuncture " has been recently developed by the US Air Force and is now being used in Iraq and Afghanistan on wounded warriors suffering severe acute pain from trauma. This protocol consists of five acupuncture points on the outer ear. A recent study has demonstrated decreased pain and agitation in children undergoing ear tube insertion. Ear tube patients have mild discomfort compared to tonsillectomy patients and are able to attend school the next day. The investigators have been encouraged by the benefits of acupuncture during surgery for ear tube patients and also wounded warriors recovering from their injuries. These findings motivated us to see if acupuncture during tonsillectomy surgery would result in less pain and nausea.

NCT ID: NCT01330147 Completed - Chronic Tonsillitis Clinical Trials

HPV Prevalence in the Mouth and Oropharynx of the Tonsillectomy Population

Oromouth
Start date: March 2013
Phase: N/A
Study type: Observational

The principal aim of this study is to provide vital current data on the prevalence, distribution and natural history of Human Papilloma Virus (HPV) infection in the mouth. This data is an essential requirement for the assessment, development and evaluation of cost effectiveness of prophylactic vaccination and screening programmes.
