Eligibility Criteria

18 Years - undefined (Adult, Older Adult)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Confirmed diagnosis of chronic rhinosinusitis, defined by the AAO-HNS 2015 guidelines, including presence of bilateral ethmoid disease.
  • ESS including bilateral ethmoidectomy with middle meatal antrostomy within 7 days prior to scheduled implant placement. Concurrent septoplasty and surgical treatment of the other paranasal sinuses also permitted.

Exclusion Criteria:

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Inflammation Score
Inflammation score was determined at baseline and Day 90 using a visual analogue scale (VAS), ranging from 0 (no visible inflammation) to 100 (severe inflammation, involving significant and extensive erythema and edema and/or hypertrophy and/or polypoid changes), as determined by an independent sinus surgeon based on a centralized, blinded video-endoscopy review.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
Randomized, controlled, blinded clinical trial with 40 patients randomized in a 1:1 ratio to either treatment (bilateral in-office placement of a drug-eluting implant in the ethmoid sinuses following ethmoidectomy) or control (post-op standard of care) group and followed for 6 months.
Detailed Description
This prospective, randomized, controlled, blinded trial aimed to assess the efficacy of a drug-eluting sinus implant placed following ethmoidectomy in addition to post-op standard of care, including debridement, irrigation, and topical steroids, compared to the same standard of care alone (control). Patients returned for follow-up examination at 2 weeks and again at 1, 3 and 6 months after placement. Follow-up examination consisted of patient-reported outcomes and endoscopic grading by clinical investigators and an independent sinus surgeon based on a centralized, blinded video-endoscopy review.

Parallel Assignment
Model Description
Patients assigned to the treatment group underwent a bilateral in-office placement of a steroid-eluting sinus implant 7 days following ethmoidectomy in addition to post-op standard of care, including debridement, irrigation, and topical steroids. Patients randomized to the control group received same standard of care alone.
Masking
ParticipantOutcomes Assessor
Masking Description
Patients were wearing eye masked and noise-cancelling headsets during placement and follow-up endoscopies. The primary outcome was assessed by an independent sinus surgeon based on a centralized, blinded video-endoscopy review.
