Objective
Nasal packing after septoplasty is uncomfortable and painful for patients. The aim of this study was to determine the efficacy of nasal splinting using silicone plates to prevent complications and decrease the pain after septoplasty compared with the conventional gauze packing.Materials and methods
Thirty-five adult patients who had undergone septoplasty were included in this study. The patients were allocated into two groups: Group S, silicone plates were used (13 males, 2 females); and Group G, gauze packing smeared with an antibiotic ointment was used (19 males, 1 female). We evaluated and compared the postoperative pain, pain due to postoperative cleaning, nasal bleeding, postnasal drip, body temperature, effect on stay in the hospital, effect on food intake and sleep disturbance using visual analogue scale (VAS) scores.Results
The postoperative pain score in Group S was significantly lower than in Group G on days 1 and 2 after the septoplasty. And the pain due to postoperative cleaning score was significantly lower than in Group G on days 2 and 3 after operation. No statistically significant differences were found between the two groups in regard to nasal bleeding, postnasal drip, body temperature, effect on stay in the hospital, effect on food intake or sleep disturbance. Objective evaluation performed at 4 weeks postoperatively revealed that nasal crusting occurred at a significantly higher incidence in Group G compared with Group S.Conclusion
The use of silicone plates in lieu of conventional gauze packing decreased post-septoplasty nasal pain and pain due to postoperative cleaning of the nasal cavity. We conclude that nasal splinting using silicone plates after septoplasty is an effective method for managing pain and preventing complications. 相似文献2.

OBJECTIVE: The most frequent complaint of patients after septoplasty is severe pain felt during removal of nasal packing placed on the operation. Various methods have been described to decrease pain and to increase patient comfort during removal of nasal packing. However, these methods are not practical. There has been an increase in the number of studies on pre-emptive analgesia use for postoperative pain relief. The aim of this study was to determine whether pre-emptive analgesia decreased pain during removal of Merocel packs placed in septoplasties. METHODS: This is a double-blind randomized, placebo-controlled study. The study included 121 patients who underwent elective septoplasty in our otorhinolaryngology clinic. The patients were randomly assigned into two groups: study and placebo groups. The study and placebo groups received two tablets of diflunisal 500 mg and placebo, respectively, two and a half hours before removal of nasal packing. Visual analog scale (VAS) values immediately after and 5 min after removal of nasal packing, effects of the procedure on patient comfort and its side-effects were evaluated separately. RESULTS: VAS values immediately after the removal of nasal packs significantly decreased in the study group (p<0.001), but there was no significant difference in VAS values obtained after the procedure between the study and placebo groups. Patient discomforts were significantly lower in the diflunisal group (p<0.001). CONCLUSIONS: It can be concluded that pre-emptive analgesia decreases pain during removal of nasal packing placed in septoplasties and increases patient comfort. 相似文献

We compared the use of glycerol and icthammol (G&I) ribbon gauze versus topical antibiotic and steroid drops in the management of otitis externa. Patients presenting with acute otitis externa were systematically recruited from attendance in the ENT emergency clinic. Exclusion criteria were age <18 years, diabetic patients, and those who had been previously treated for otitis externa by the department within the last month. A total of 43 patients were recruited with 48 infected ears, the mean patient age was 47 years, (range 18-80 years). Patients were randomised to either insertion of a G&I ribbon gauze or topical ear drops by means of a ballot with no stratification. All patients were reviewed 5 days later. Patients were asked to comment on their pain using the ten point visual analogue pain score. Oedema of the canal wall, presence of debris and visibility of the tympanic membrane were graded on microscopy. Patient satisfaction and return to work were assessed. There was a statistically significant decrease in the pain score between each visit for the entire group of patients and decrease in canal wall swelling (P < 0.001). There was no significant difference between drops and ribbon gauze in terms of pain relief, canal wall oedema, or aural discharge. Following microbiological analysis, 27.8% of bacteria were resistant to neomycin. The cost of treatment with G&I is less than a third of that for topical antibiotic-steroid drops and requires less patient compliance. Patient concerns with the ribbon gauze included its cosmetic appearance and loss of hearing and with drops included frequency of application. We recommend the use of G&I ribbon gauze as first-line treatment, particularly for those who have had allergies to carriers of drops, those that are poorly compliant or with poor manual dexterity, for example patients with rheumatic hands. 相似文献

Nasal packings can aid in control of postoperative bleeding and healing following functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS), but traditional non-resorbable stents have several inherent drawbacks. We performed a randomized, controlled, multicenter clinical trial to assess efficacy of resorbable nasal packing in patients undergoing FESS for chronic rhinosinusitis. A total of 66 patients for 88 nasal cavities were randomized to receive either hyaluronan resorbable packing (MeroGel®) or standard non-resorbable nasal dressing after FESS. All underwent preoperative rhinoscopy, CT of sinuses, and, after surgery, were reassessed by rhinoscopy at 2, 4, and 12 weeks in blinded fashion. A total of 44 nasal cavities (MeroGel®-group) received resorbable packing, whereas the remaining 44 were packed with non-resorbable nasal dressing. At follow-up endoscopic visit, the presence of nasal synechia was evaluated as primary outcome. Moreover, the tolerability and surgical handling properties of MeroGel® and its comfort were assessed by surgeons and patients. Preoperative severity of rhinosinusitis was similar in both groups. No significant adverse events were observed in all patients. Follow-up endoscopy showed a lower proportion of nasal adhesions in MeroGel®-group at both 4 (P = 0.041) and 12 weeks (P < 0.001). Moreover, an improvement of other endoscopic nasal findings such as re-epithelialization, presence of granulation tissue, and appearance of nasal mucosa of nasal cavities after FESS was observed in the MeroGel®-group. Tolerability and surgical handling properties of MeroGel® were positively rated by clinicians and the overall patient judged comfort of MeroGel® was favorable. In conclusion, MeroGel® can be considered a valid alternative to standard non-resorbable nasal dressings. It is safe, well-accepted, well-tolerated, and has significant advantage of being resorbable. Moreover, it may favor improved healing in patients undergoing FESS and reduce formation of adhesions. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE/HYPOTHESIS: To evaluate the use of cryoanalgesia in reducing post-tonsillectomy pain. STUDY DESIGN: A prospective, randomized double-blind study of 59 consecutive patients (age range, 8-40 y) undergoing tonsillectomy for recurrent tonsillitis. METHODS: All patients underwent bipolar tonsillectomy. At the completion of the tonsillectomy patients were randomly assigned to a control or a cryotherapy group. The cryotherapy patients had both their tonsillar fossa "supercooled" to between -20 degrees C and -32 degrees C for 1 minute. Patients recorded their pain using a visual analogue scale over the next 10 days. Patients were also monitored for postoperative complications, time until resumption of a normal diet, time back to work or school, and analgesic consumption. RESULTS: The two groups were similar for age and sex. There was a 28.3% reduction in mean pain scores over the 10 days in the cryotherapy compared to the control group. This difference did not significantly depend on the day after operation or time of the day. Cryotherapy patients also returned to work or school, on average, 4 days earlier than controls. There was no significant difference in postoperative complications between the two groups. CONCLUSION: Cryotherapy is a new technique that significantly reduces post-tonsillectomy pain without evidence of causing additional complications. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To examine whether microdebrider intracapsular tonsillotomy (MT) results in less postoperative pain compared with electrosurgical extracapsular tonsillectomy (ET). DESIGN: Prospective, randomized, double-blind, matched pair, clinical trial. SETTING: Specialty care hospital.Patients Twelve male (48%) and 13 female (52%) children aged 5 to 15 years, with obstructive tonsillar hyperplasia were randomized to have one tonsil removed by MT and the other by ET. INTERVENTIONS: An angled endoscopic microdebrider was used to perform MT, and ET was performed by standard monopolar cautery technique. Parents and children were blinded to the side of MT and ET. Children rated the pain 0 to 5 by side using the Faces Pain Scale-Revised. Blinded data collection was via telephone daily for 2 weeks by a study nurse. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Primary: postoperative pain as recorded by Faces Pain Scale-Revised; secondary, presence or absence of otalgia and postoperative bleeding. RESULTS: Twenty-two children (88%) had tonsillectomy and adenoidectomy, while 3 children (12%) had tonsillectomy alone. On postoperative days 1 to 9, children reported significantly less pain on the MT side compared with the ET side (paired t test; P<.01). By postoperative days 10 to 14, the difference between sides disappeared. Twenty children (80%) reported otalgia, and it was always unilateral. For those children reporting otalgia, there was a 100% correlation between the side of otalgia and the side of ET. There was no posttonsillectomy bleeding among the 25 children. CONCLUSION: Microdebrider intracapsular tonsillotomy is significantly less painful compared with electrosurgical ET in children undergoing surgical intervention for obstructive tonsillar hypertrophy. 相似文献

OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS: To determine the effectiveness of dexamethasone to reduce pain after tonsillectomy in adults by at least 13 mm on the visual analogue scale. The secondary objective was to reduce the use of narcotics by at least 20%. STUDY DESIGN: This multicentric study is a prospective double-blind randomized controlled trial. METHODS: A total of 102 patients were enrolled and received a 4-day trial either of dexamethasone in decreasing doses or placebo. The patients were asked to note the level of pain on the visual analogue scale daily for 7 days. They also had to record their consumption of analgesic and any eventual side effects. RESULTS: There were no statistically or clinically significant differences between the two groups for the level of pain noted on the visual analogue scale for the first 4 and 7 days. There were no statistical differences for the consumption of hydromorphone between the two groups. CONCLUSION: We cannot recommend the use of dexamethasone on a routine basis following tonsillectomy in adults for the reduction of pain or narcotics consumption. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To compare the effects of ropivacaine and bupivacaine on post-tonsillectomy pain in children. METHODS: Forty-six children aged 2-12 years, undergoing tonsillectomy were enrolled in the study. Group 1 (n=16) received bupivacaine, group 2 (n=15) received ropivacaine, and a group 3 (control) (n=15) received 9% NaCl (saline) infiltrated around each tonsil. Pain was evaluated using a modified Children's Hospital of Eastern Ontario Pain Scale (mCHEOPS) recorded 15 min and 1, 4, 12, 16, and 24h postoperatively. RESULTS: No difference was found in the demographic data among the groups. The pain scores were similar between the bupivacaine and ropivacaine groups (p>0.05). The pain scores in both analgesia groups were significantly (p<0.05) lower 1, 4, 12, 16, and 24h postoperatively compared to the control group. Analgesic requirements and the time to first analgesia were also significantly (p<0.05) different between the analgesia and control groups. CONCLUSION: Local ropivacaine infiltration is a safe and effective method and equivalent to bupivacaine for post-tonsillectomy pain. 相似文献

The objective of this study was to assess the efficacy of topical lignocaine in reducing the pain of pack removal after nasal surgery. Fifty-eight patients with Merocel nasal packs in situ after nasal surgery were randomized to receive 10 ml of either 2 per cent lignocaine or 0.9 per cent saline on the packs 10 minutes prior to their removal and the pain experienced on their removal was recorded on a visual analogue scale. The median pain score was 3.4 in the lignocaine group and 2.9 in the saline group with no statistical evidence of a difference between the two groups. There was no statistical evidence of an association between the group and the operation performed, the use of intra-operative Moffat's solution or the use of post-operative oral analgesia. We conclude that lignocaine used in this way does not reduce the pain of pack removal after nasal surgery. 相似文献

ObjectiveThe blocking of airflow into sinonasal cavity may decrease postoperative crusting and the development of adhesions. The purpose of this study was to investigate the efficacy of cotton ball packing in patients following endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS).MethodsThirty nine patients with chronic rhinosinusitis requiring the same extent of ESS were included. As a part of postoperative care, the patients were instructed to perform a nasal saline irrigation and apply a nasal spray in each nostril, and then informed to put a cotton ball in a one side of nostril, and the other side was kept to be empty as a control. Patients’ subjective symptoms, patients’ pain while receiving sinonasal cavity debridement, time required to perform debridement, and postoperative wound healing were evaluated.ResultsAlthough cotton ball packing resulted in less discomfort for postnasal drip, rhinorrhea, headache, and facial pain than no packing, there were no statistically significant differences between the groups. The cotton ball packing was associated with significantly less pain on while performing postoperative debridement, therefore less time was needed to perform debridement. The cotton ball packing appears to improve wound healing within the sinus cavities up to 1 month postoperatively.ConclusionThe use of the cotton ball packing after ESS results in significantly less formation of crusts and adhesions, leading to decreasing pain and time during postoperative debridement and promoting faster wound healing. 相似文献

Objective
To compare the topical administration of bupivacaine hydrochloride, lidocaine hydrochloride with epinephrine and saline in alleviating post tonsillectomy pain.Study design
A double-blind prospective randomized controlled clinical study.Methods
Between November 2008 and March 2009, 60 patients (32 males and 28 females) between ages of 1.5 and 15 years were recruited into the study. After informed consent was obtained from the parents, patients, admitted for tonsillectomy, were randomized into three groups using sealed envelops. Group 1 (20 patients, mean age 5.2 ± 1.7) received topical lidocaine hydrochloride (20 mg/ml) with 0.00125% epinephrine. Group 2 (20 patients, mean age 6 ± 3.7) received topical 0.5% bupivacaine hydrochloride and group 3 (20 patients, mean age 6.7 ± 3.6) received topical saline.Results
The post-operative pain scores at 1 h were similar among the groups (p = 0.29). Pain scores in bupivacaine hydrochloride group were significantly lesser than the saline group at 5th, 13th, 17th and 21st hours, until the sixth day (p < 0.017). Moreover, pain scores of bupivacaine hydrochloride group were superior to lidocaine hydrochloride group starting at 17 h, until fourth day (p < 0.017). Pain scores of lidocaine hydrochloride group were lesser than saline group in the first and fifth days (p < 0.017), whereas, there was no significant difference at other times.Conclusion
Topical administration of bupivacaine hydrochloride proved to provide more efficient pain control than both saline and lidocaine without any drug related complication. 相似文献16.

OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS: The objective was to determine whether there is an increased incidence of otorrhea in young children with tympanostomy tubes who swim and bathe without water precautions as compared with children who use water precautions in the form of ear plugs. STUDY DESIGN: Prospective, randomized, investigator-blinded, controlled trial. METHODS: Two hundred one children (age range, 6 mo-6 y) who had undergone bilateral myringotomy and tube insertion were randomly assigned into one of two groups: swimming and bathing with or without ear plugs. Children were seen monthly for 1 year and whenever there was intercurrent otorrhea. RESULTS: Ninety children with and 82 children without ear plugs returned for at least one follow-up visit. Mean (SD) duration of follow-up was 9.4 (4.1) months for the children with ear plugs and 9.1 (4.4) months for the children without ear plugs. Forty-two children (47%) who wore ear plugs developed at least one episode of otorrhea, as compared with 46 (56%) who did not use ear plugs (logistic regression adjusting for stratification variables, P = .21). The mean (SD) rate of otorrhea per month was 0.07 (0.31) for the children who wore ear plugs as compared with 0.10 (0.31) for the children who did not wear ear plugs (Poisson regression adjusting for stratification variables, P = .05). CONCLUSION: There is a small but statistically significant increase in the rate of otorrhea in young children who swim and bathe without the use of ear plugs as compared with children who use ear plugs. Because the clinical impact of using ear plugs is small, their routine use may be unnecessary. 相似文献

The aim of this prospective single-blinded and controlled study is to evaluate the efficacy of levobupivacaine infiltration on post-tonsillectomy pain relief in adults. The study was conducted with 40 adult patients who underwent tonsillectomy. These patients were randomized in either study group (SG) who received levobupivacaine infiltration to peritonsillary fossae prior to surgery or control group (CG) with no medication. After surgery, all the patients were queried for pain scores by visual analog scale. In addition, the volume of intraoperative bleeding, the duration of operation, the severity of postoperative complications, and the amount of analgesic requirement were the other outcome measures of this study. There were significant differences between groups regarding pain scores for the first 24 h in favor of SG. The analgesic requirement was also significantly lower in SG (p = 0.009). Although there was a sustained decrement at pain score during first 24 h for SG, however, the change from baseline score (immediate score) for each time interval revealed no significance compared to CG. In addition, the duration of operation and the volume of intraoperative bleeding were similar (p = 0.64 and p = 0.165). In conclusion, preincisional infiltration of levobupivacaine is a safe and reliable method for post-tonsillectomy pain reduction in adults. However, more in-depth, double-blinded and placebo controlled studies are required to elucidate its long term benefits. 相似文献

IntroductionSeveral biomaterials can be used in ear surgery to pack the middle ear or support the graft. The absorbable gelatin sponge is the most widely used, but it may produce fibrosis and impair ventilation of the middle ear.ObjectiveThis experimental study aimed to investigate the inflammatory effects of the sugarcane biopolymer sponge (BP) in the rat middle ear compared with absorbable gelatin sponge (AGS).Materials and methodsProspective experimental study design. Thirty adult female Wistar rats were allocated to receive the BP sponge into the right ear and AGS into the left ear. Animals were randomly killed at 4 and 12 weeks post-procedure. Qualitative histological assessments were performed to evaluate the inflammatory reaction in the tympanic bullae.ResultsThe BP sponge caused inflammation more intense and persistent than AGS. The BP was not absorbed during the experiment. Fibrosis was observed only in the ears with AGS. There were thickening of the mucosa and neoangiogenesis in the group of AGS.ConclusionDespite inflammation, the BP sponge produced less fibrosis and neoangiogenesis compared to AGS. The sponge BP appeared to be a non-absorbable biomaterial in the middle ear. 相似文献
