Debridement and Functional Endoscopic Sinus Surgery

NCT04093193 · Status: UNKNOWN · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 150

Summary

Functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS) is the gold standard surgical intervention for management of patients with chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS). Synechiae formation in the middle meatus is the most common complication of endoscopic sinus surgery after FESS. Nasal debridement is a postoperative procedure used in the prevention of synechiae formation. This procedure lacks standardized evidence-based guidelines. The currently existing studies that have been conducted to determine the efficacy of post-operative debridement have shown conflicting results. We hypothesize that there is no difference in short and long term clinical outcomes between patients who had routine post-operative nasal debridement following FESS and patients who did not have post-operative nasal debridement.
