Active clinical trials for "Sinusitis"

This Study evaluates the effect of adding Non-steroidal anti-inflammatories (NSAIDs) to the post-operative pain management of sinus surgery patients and wether or not this addition reduces or eliminates the need for narcotic pain medications. Patients will be instructed to take an NSAID regimen after surgery and will be instructed to take narcotics only for breakthrough pain.

Comparative-effectiveness study of the treatment of acute bacterial sinusitis with amoxicillin/clavulanate 875mg/125mg bid for 7 days with or without the addition of immediate-release amoxicillin 875 mg bid x 7 days. .

Verapamil is an L-type calcium channel blocker(CCB) which has been shown to reduce inflammation in a variety of tissues. Verapamil has also been shown to improve eosinophilic inflammation in an animal model of asthma and also functions as a P-glycoprotein(P-gp) inhibitor. A major subtype of chronic rhinosinusitis(CRS) is characterized by eosinophilic inflammation as well as P-gp overexpression. The goal of this study is to therefore see whether Verapamil may be used to treat CRS.

The purpose of the study is to evaluate the physiologic response of quinine-saline irrigations for acute exacerbation of uncomplicated chronic rhinosinusitis following endoscopic sinus surgery. Subjects who have previously had functional endoscopic sinus surgery with acute exacerbation of chronic rhinosinusitis will be randomized to either a quinine-saline or saline-placebo arm. The investigators will measure baseline and follow-up clinical and quality-of-life outcomes for both arms, and then compare the groups at the end of the study period. The investigators' hypothesis is that the participants in the quinine sulfate arm will perform better on all measures as compared to the control arm.

This is a clinical study organized to collect clinical data to better define the activity of some antimicrobials already marketed in Italy and in the rest of the world for the treatment of acute bacterial rhinosinusitis

It is unknown whether surgical treatment of chronic sinusitis improves asthma control in patients with poorly controlled asthma. This is a randomized trial of surgical plus medical sinus therapy versus medical therapy alone.

This study aims to assess the diagnostic performance of CT and MRI in the diagnosis of complications of rhinosinusitis in comparison to clinical and operative findings.

Proof-of-concept study with a novel nasal spray in chronic rhinitis or chronic sinusitis. The study will involve 25 patients completing the study for a per protocol analysis.

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.

The goal of this study is to evaluate basic usability and confirm expected safety and effectiveness of SinuSys Dilation System when used to dilate frontal recess and sphenoid sinus ostia in patients with chronic rhinosinusitis.
