Filter by:The purpose of this study is to compare intranasal fluticasone spray with budesonide nasal saline rinses in both the upright and head forward positions in patients who have had functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS) for chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyposis (CRSwNP) and measure differences in Sinonasal Outcome Test-22 (SNOT-22) scores and Lund- Kennedy scores on rigid nasal endoscopy at time points 1 week, 3 weeks, 6 weeks, 2 months, 4 months, and 6 months post-op.
The purpose of this study is to the effect of squeezable bottle nasal irrigation device with syringe in children with sinusitis in symptom score and satisfaction to nasal irrigation
Endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS) is widely considered to be the gold standard in the surgical management of chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) that has failed maximal medical therapy. Nevertheless, the postoperation medical therapy was considered as a crucial procedure for the success of ESS. Both glucocorticoids and macrolide antibiotics have been recommended for the treatment of CRS, but their effect as postoperation medical therapies of ESS need more clinical data to clarify. The purpose of this prospective, randomized,study is to determine the effect of glucocorticoids and macrolide antibiotics for the postoperation medical therapy of ESS in different subtypes of CRS.
A randomized, double-blind, ascending multiple dose study in healthy volunteers and subjects with chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps
1. objectives. To compare the efficacy and the safety of mometasone furoate nasal spray (MFNS; Nasonex 200μg, daily) alone versus a combination with montelukast (singulair 10mg, daily) in chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) with asthma after functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS) for improvement the clinical control of CRS 2. the clinical hypotheses. The investigators hypothesize that postoperative combined montelukast and MFNS can better improve clinical control of CRS concomitant with asthma after FESS compared with MFNS alone. 3. study design This study is a 9-month randomized, open-label, controlled interventional study.
Primary objective - To compare the incidence of postoperative nasal synerchia between Mitomicin C and placebo in patients at 6 months after endoscopic sinus surgery - To validate the Thai version of disease-specific quality of life tool SNOT-22 Secondary objectives - To compare the clinical signs and symptoms of CRS in patients who receive Mitomicin C with those who receive placebo - To compare the disease-specific quality of life in patients who receive Mitomicin C with those who receive placebo - To compare the side effects of Mitomicin C versus placebo
Chronic Rhinosinusitis (CRS) is a common disorder of the nose characterized by stuffy nose, discoloured nasal discharge, sinus congestion or pressure and decreased sense of smell, present for over twelve weeks. Anti-inflammatory steroid medication is often used to treat sinus inflammation in CRS. These steroids are sometimes delivered using a spray device that creates a mist to deliver steroid medication deep into the nose. However, the distribution and efficacy of sprayed medication can be affected by the position of the patient's head. This study aims to determine which of two head positions is best for delivering steroid to the sinuses.
Functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS) is the best method of surgically treating patients who suffer from sinus disease. Synechiae formation in the nose is the most common complication after sinus surgery. Synechiae describes the adhesion of two opposing mucosal surfaces in the nasal cavity that can cause scarring and obstruction of the nasal passage. Spacers are often inserted during surgery between nasal mucosal surfaces to prevent synechiae. The aim of this study is to see if a silastic spacer is more effective at reducing the formation of synechiae after sinus surgery than a merocel spacer.
Chronic rhinosinusitis, a common diagnosis in children, remains a poorly understood disease. Adenoidectomy (surgery to take out the adenoid pads- infection fighting glands in the back of the throat) is performed since the adenoid pad may trap germs that enter a child's body and can get so swollen with bacteria that they become infected themselves. Functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS) and adenoidectomy are currently the most common surgeries performed on children with this disease. Another treatment is adenoidectomy and irrigation of the maxillary sinus without FESS. New technology has emerged using a balloon catheter to dilate (open) the sinus passage in addition to the adenoidectomy and irrigation. This study seeks to answer if children with chronic rhinosinusitis who undergo adenoidectomy with balloon dilation of the maxillary sinus passage and irrigation experience improved quality of life outcomes compared to children with chronic rhinosinusitis who undergo an adenoidectomy with maxillary sinus irrigation without dilation of the sinus passage.
The purpose of this study is to treat patients with a diagnosis of chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) and a history of bilateral endoscopic sinus surgery during times of worsening symptoms and signs of acute infection on nasal endoscopy with one of two treatments: (1) oral antibiotics and twice daily intranasal saline irrigations or (2) oral placebo and twice daily intranasal antibiotic irrigations. The two treatments will be compared to see if there is any difference in patient outcomes. This will help guide treatment strategies for patients with CRS in the future.
