Abstract:
Objective To compare the efficacies between nasal packing and no nasal packing after endoscopic sinus surgery for chronic sinusitis,and explore the feasibility of no nasal packing after endoscopic sinus surgery.Methods Eighty-two type 1 or type 2 chronic sinusitis patients who received endoscopic sinus surgery under general anesthesia were divided into no nasal packing group (44 cases,75 sides) and nasal packing group (38 cases,65 sides) by random digits table method.The patients in 2 groups were taken preoperative anti-inflammatory and regulation blood pressure treatment.The volume of bleeding,postoperative pain (visual analogue score,VAS),degree of mucosal edema,efficacy and postoperative complications between 2 groups were compared.Results There were no statistical difference in volume of bleeding and efficacy between 2 groups (P > 0.05).The postoperative VAS in no nasal packing group was significantly lower than that in nasal packing group [(2.46 ± 0.54) scores vs.(5.49 ± 1.26) scores],there was statistical difference (P< 0.01).There was no statistical difference in mucosal edema score postoperative 1 week and 6 months between 2 groups (P > 0.05),but the mucosal edema score postoperative 1 month in no nasal packing group was significantly lower than that in nasal packing group [(1.32 ±0.63) scores vs.(3.52 ±0.72) scores],there was statistical difference (P < 0.01).Postoperative comphcations in nasal packing group were significantly more than those in no packing group.Conclusion No nasal packing can be performed for type 1 or type 2 chronic sinusitis patients who has no significant bleeding after endoscopic sinus surgery under general anesthesia,it is actually beneficial of relieving distress of the patient and reducing postoperative complications.
