Nasal irrigation is one of the main treatment of sinonasal diseases. The mechanism of action of nasal irrigation has many physiological aspects such as removing of excess mucus which is a potential medium for bacterial growth and infection, cleaning of antigens and biofilm to decrease inflammatory
Background and scientific rationale Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) is an inflammatory condition of the paranasal sinuses affecting millions of patients, resulting in billions of dollars being spent annually in associated health care costs. Biofilm has been implicated in chronic rhinosinusitis
Clinical Background on OSA OSA is a prevalent disorder, with roughly 1 in 5 adults estimated to have at least mild OSA and 1 in 15 estimated to have at least moderate OSA. Furthermore, OSA causes a number of adverse cardiovascular, neurocognitive, and daytime functional consequences. As a result,
This is a single center, randomized & controlled trial comparing the efficacy of the Propel mini stent or Propel contour stent vs. Nasopore impregnated with Triamcinolone Acetonide at reducing frontal sinus opening stenosis and polypoid edema after endoscopic sinus surgery in patients with chronic
Study Design
Double-blind placebo-controlled randomized clinical trial
Subjects Up to 80 adult patients with complaints of purulent (not clear) nasal drainage accompanied by nasal obstruction, facial pain-pressure-fullness, or both and reduction or loss of smell for 12 weeks or greater.

Endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS) is the gold standard surgical intervention for chronic rhinosinusitis that is not adequately controlled with medical therapy. Synechiae formation in the middle meatus is the most common complication of endoscopic sinus surgery. Synechiae describes the adhesion of two
BACKGROUND: Chronic Rhinosinusitis (CRS) is a common inflammatory condition of the upper respiratory tract lasting more than 8 to 12 weeks. Major symptoms include facial congestion/fullness, facial pain/pressure, nasal obstruction/blockage, purulent nasal drainage, and reduction or loss of smell.
Rhinosinusitis is one of the most prevalent diseases in the United States with an estimated 31 million adults diagnosed with this condition. The annual health care burden has been estimated to exceed 5.8 billion dollars. Unfortunately, the underlying etiology of rhinosinusitis is not fully
The significant heterogeneity present in the current literature regarding the use of postoperative debridement warrants additional studies that document postoperative protocols and use universally accepted endoscopy scores in order to consistently track patient outcomes. Further investigation into
1. PURPOSE
The purpose of this study is to determine if the Lying Head Back or Head Down and Forward head position for administering topical atomized nasal medication results in greater distribution and efficacy of budesonide administered via the mucosal atomization device in chronic rhinosinusitis
Chronic Rhinosinusitis (CRS) is a common inflammatory condition of the upper respiratory tract lasting more than 8 to 12 weeks. Major symptoms include facial congestion/fullness, facial pain/pressure, nasal obstruction/blockage, purulent nasal drainage, and reduction or loss of smell. The diagnosis
Background: Gulf War Illness (GWI) results in tremendous impact to quality of life. Symptoms of chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) and fatigue are the first (47%) and third (41%) most common symptoms of patients with GWI, respectively. These symptoms are biologically characterized by a milieu of elevated
Background: Chronic Rhinosinusitis (CRS) is a common inflammatory condition of the upper respiratory tract lasting more than 8 to 12 weeks. Major symptoms include facial congestion/fullness, facial pain/pressure, nasal obstruction/blockage, purulent nasal drainage, and reduction or loss of smell.
Endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS) has revolutionized the surgical treatment of chronic sinus disease, permitting outpatient sinus surgery with minimal morbidity. Previously performed using local anesthesia, the majority of patients and surgeons now prefer general anesthesia for comfort, stress
