研究概览
简要总结
The purpose of this study is to determine the best duration(3 versus 6 weeks) of antibiotics as part of maximal medical therapy for treating chronic sinusitis and thus preventing patients from having to have sinus surgery. The hypothesis is that in the context of maximal medical therapy 3 weeks of antibiotics is not worse than 6 weeks of antibiotics at successfully treating chronic sinusitis.
详细描述
OVERVIEW This is a prospective randomized cohort study assessing duration of antibiotics (3 vs 6 weeks) as part of maximal medical therapy for chronic rhinosinusitis. Up to 100 subjects will be prospectively enrolled from patients visiting the Department of Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery clinics at UNC Hospitals.
INITIAL CLINIC VISIT At the time of a clinical visit, the attending otolaryngologists will identify their patients with chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) who are appropriate for maximal medical treatment, including antibiotics. They will introduce the study to these patients and invite them to learn more about it.
If the patient is interested in learning more about the study, the study coordinators will be contacted to provide additional information and, if the patient would like to participate in the study, provide informed consent.
If the patient is a premenopausal woman, she will be asked if she is pregnant or breastfeeding.
If she is either of these, she will be excluded from the study. All remaining women will receive a urine pregnancy test. If this urine pregnancy test is positive, the patient will be excluded from the study. Thus, for premenopausal female patients, a negative urine pregnancy test is necessary for inclusion in the study. These women will be informed that they should use an effective method of birth control during the study:

研究组 & 干预措施
Azithromycin, 3 weeks
Subjects with Chronic Rhinosinusitis without Nasal Polyps will receive Azithromycin 250mg daily, or if allergic to azithromycin, then Augmentin 875mg BID for 3 weeks duration.
干预措施: Azithromycin (Drug)
Doxycycline, 3 weeks

结局指标
主要结局
Number of Patients Recommended for Sinus Surgery After 3 Weeks of Antibiotic Therapy
时间窗: 4-5 weeks after starting antibiotics
Recommendation for sinus surgery after completion of maximal medical therapy is determined by the subject's treating physician and is based on two citeria: (1) persistence of symptoms and (2) objective evidence of disease on post-treatment sinus CT scan or nasal endoscopy. Symptomatic improvement of sinusitis symptoms will be assessed by: patient self report, change in Chronic Sinusitis Survery (CSS) score and change in RhinoSinusitis Disibility Index (RSDI) score relative to initial pre-antibiotic CSS and RSDI survey scores.
Number of Patients Recommended for Sinus Surgery After 6 Weeks of Antibiotic Therapy
时间窗: 7-8 weeks after initiating antibiotics
