Pilot Study To Evaluate A Pharmacologically Active Nasal Sponge Following Endoscopic Sinus Surgery

Withdrawn before enrolling · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Sinusitis, Chronic Sinusitis

In brief

This study will compare the incidence of post-op infection after sinus surgery using conventional post-op oral antibiotics to the incidence of infection after sinus surgery when a bio-resorbable antibiotic soaked nasal sponge is used in the nasal cavity in lieu of post-op oral antibiotics. The nasal sponge is a routine nasal dressing used after sinus surgery and will therefore be placed in all patients.
