The Novapak study is a prospective, observational, multi-site, non-controlled, non-randomized, case-series, with a 2 week and 1-month follow-up in adults undergoing nasal/sinus surgery with Novapak Nasal Sinus Packing and Stent device used as indicated post-operatively and is being conducted to obtain clinical data on the safety and effectiveness of the Novapak device under use as intended in the device indications.
The researchers are investigating if the Self-Supporting Nasopharyngeal Airway (ssNPA) device can be used in the treatment of obstructive sleep apnea in children with Hypotonic Upper Airway Obstruction (HUAO).
Aim of the study: To compare radiographically the morphometric changes in the nasal airway after using three types of rapid maxillary expansion (RME) conventional hyrax (CH), hybrid hyrax (HH) and maxillary skeletal expander (MSE) using cone beam computed tomography (CBCT).
The purpose of this study is to compare the Vivaer procedure with radiofrequency (RF) energy to sham procedure for treatment of nasal airway obstruction (NAO).
Currently, there are no tools that can measure nasal airflow in an objective manner that is non-invasive to the patient. This clinical study aims to address this by evaluating the use of thermal imaging as a diagnostic tool for measuring nasal airflow. Proper airflow cools the nasal airway as it passes--obstructions or narrowed airways hinder flow and results in elevated temperatures along the airway and nasal tissue. It is this elevation in temperature, or more specifically, loss of cooling, that we hypothesize to be measurable with thermal imaging. Participants in this study will be asked to perform 3-4 nasal breathing cycles which will be recorded by the thermal imager.
