简要总结
Investigators tried to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Chinese herbal medicine nasal irrigation as an adjuvant therapy after FESS.
详细描述
In this study, patients with chronic rhinosinusitis who received FESS were recruited and randomly assigned to 2 groups at one month post-surgery. Patients in the xylitol group received 240ml of Chinese herbal medicine nasal irrigation daily for 2 months, and those in the normal saline (NS) group received 240ml of NS nasal irrigation daily for 2 months. Before FESS as well as before and after nasal irrigation, sino-nasal symptoms were assessed by a 22-item Sino-Nasal Outcome Test questionnaire and patients received endoscopic examination, nasal function tests, cytokine measurement of nasal irrigant, and bacterial culture from the middle meatus. The safety of nasal irrigation was assessed by self-reported adverse events, and blood test. This study tried to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Chinese herbal medicine nasal irrigation as an adjuvant therapy after FESS.

主要结局
Taiwanese version of the 22-item Sino-Nasal Outcome Test
时间窗: From before operation to 3 months after surgery
The Taiwanese version of the 22-item Sino-Nasal Outcome Test contains 22 items of symptoms and social/emotional consequences from nasal disorder. Patients are asked to rate their problems based on how they have been over the past two weeks. Each item is graded from 0 (no problem) to 5 (as bad as it can be) according to its severity and frequency.
Self-reported adverse events
时间窗: From before nasal irrigation to after 2-month nasal irrigation
Any adverse events occurring during the 2 months period of nasal irrigation
次要结局
- Change of the second minimal cross-sectional area of the nasal cavity(From before operation to 3 months after surgery)
