Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the clinical efficacy of endoscopic transnasal palatal nerve block for persistent allergic rhinitis.Methods 123 patients with heavy persistent allergic rhinitis who aged over 17 years old in Longhua central hospital affiliated to Guangdong medical university from October 2013 to February 2015 were divided into observation group and control group.The patients in the observation group(72 cases) were blocked with endoscopic sphenopalatine,the control group (51 cases) treated with medicine.The rhinoconjunctivitis quality of life questionnaire (RQLQ) and VAS were assessed before and after treatment for 6 months,1 year and 2 year survival.Results 106 patients were followed up for 2 years.In observation group,the average score of RQLQ and VAS before treatment were (2.39 ± 0.43),(7.45 ±1.24) respectively;6 months after treatment,the average scores of RQLQ and VAS were (0.82 ± 0.38),(2.47 ± 1.42) respectively;1 years (0.93 ± 0.41) and (2.53 ± 1.54);2 years (1.05 ± 0.47) and (2.67 ± 1.69);the differences were statistically significant (P < 0.05).The control group showed no obvious difference in RQLQ and VAS before and after treatment.Conclusion Endoscopic sphenopalatine nerve block can effectively improve the quality of life of patients with persistent rhinitis allergic,which is safe and effective in the treatment of severe persistent allergic rhinitis.
