To identify the incidence and risk factors of emergence agitation in adults undergoing general anesthesia for nasal surgery.We retrospectively examined 792 patients aged ≥18 years who underwent elective surgery between July 2012 August 2013. Patients postanesthesia care unit with a Richmond Agitation Sedation Scale≥+1 at any time were considered to have agitation.The overall is 22.2%. From multivariate regression analysis, following six variables found be significantly associated (P<0.05):...
Acute invasive fungal rhinosinusitis (AIFR) is an aggressive opportunistic infection with a high mortality rate. There are few reports that demonstrate improvement in the overall prognosis. Furthermore, definite prognostic factors related to patient survival remain unclear.The objective of this study was evaluate various clinical patients AIFR.This retrospective case series treated for AIFR between 1997 and 2013. A total 45 were enrolled analysis. We evaluated demographics, characteristics,...
Objectives/Hypothesis We evaluated the change in upper airway collapse according to depth of sedation during drug‐induced sleep endoscopy (DISE), as well characteristics possibly associated with that change. Study Design Prospective, single center, observational study. Methods Twenty‐nine patients were twice using DISE sedation, confirmed by bispectral index (BIS), which is a measure level consciousness. Changes site and degree obstruction at retropalatal retroglossal levels evaluated. The...
Background There have been few comparative studies on olfactory function and sinonasal-specific quality of life (QOL) after endoscopic or microscopic surgery using a transsphenoidal approach (TSA). Methods A retrospective review prospectively collected database was performed. Thirty-five patients who underwent transnasal 20 transseptal for treatment pituitary adenoma were evaluated. An anterior skull base (ASK) nasal inventory subjective visual analog scale (VAS) (0-100) olfaction evaluated...
Pollen-food allergy syndrome (PFAS) is an immunoglobulin E (IgE)-mediated in pollinosis patients caused by raw fruits and vegetables the most common food adults. However, there has been no nationwide study on PFAS Korea. In this study, we investigated prevalence clinical characteristics of Korea.Twenty-two investigators participated which with allergic rhinoconjunctivitis and/or bronchial asthma pollen were enrolled. The questionnaires included demographic characteristics, a list vegetables,...
A novel one‐dimensional (1D) inorganic material, Nb 2 Se 9 , which can be separated into atomic‐level, is synthesized through chemical reaction between and sources. crystals are formed under an excess condition to avoid other phase such as NbSe 3 the residual removed by heat treatment; thus, high‐purity obtained. The one‐atom‐thick level nanochains successfully obtained mechanical exfoliation dispersion in a solvent. covalently bonded chain, when isolated from its three‐dimensional bulk...
Despite medical and surgical treatments, some cases of nasal polyps (NP) exhibit recidivism. However, the endotype refractory chronic rhinosinusitis with NP (CRSwNP) remains unclear. Therefore, objective this study was to characterize immunological profile CRSwNP.The control (n =23), primary group (pNP, n =70) (rNP, =86) were enrolled in study. Patients who underwent revision surgeries due failed maximal treatment after surgery defined as rNP group. A total 18 inflammatory markers...
Olfaction has been shown to have a large impact on patients' lives. Endoscopic pituitary surgery is associated with potentially significant damage olfactory tissues. The objective of this study was determine the effect cauterization function when performing endoscopic nasoseptal "rescue" flap.A retrospective review performed prospectively collected data. primary outcome and measured using subjective visual analog scale (VAS; 0-100) Cross-Cultural Smell Identification Test (CC-SIT) before 3...
Endoscopic prelacrimal medial maxillectomy (EPMM) was previously reported to treat maxillary inverted papilloma. This study aimed compare recess approach with the conventional Caldwell-Luc (CLA) remove benign sinus tumors and evaluate usefulness of this based on our experience.Ten patients who underwent EPMM at hospital from January 2013 December 2017 were reviewed. We also reviewed 30 tumor resection via CLA during same period. From medical records, postoperative pathological results...
Abstract Background Although the psychometric properties of patient-reported outcome measures (e.g. 22-item Sino-nasal Outcomes Test [SNOT-22]) in chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) have been defined, these definitions not extensively studied patients very severe CRSwNP, as defined by recurrent disease despite ≥ 1 previous surgery and a current need for further surgery. Therefore, symptoms visual analogue scales (VAS) were evaluated, meaningful within-patient change thresholds...
Background Sinonasal respiratory epithelial adenomatoid hamartomas (REAH) are rare benign lesions with diverse clinical characteristics. Their pathogenesis remains unclear, hypotheses suggesting either an inflammatory process or neoplastic origin. Despite their heterogeneity, a formal subtype classification is lacking. This study analyzes the features of surgically treated sinonasal REAH and investigates disease characteristics based on bilaterality, particularly in relation to type 2...
This prospective study aimed to compare titration pressures obtained using three methods-full-night (FN-T), split-night (SN-T), and home auto-titration (HA-T)- in patients with moderate severe obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). Additionally, factors contributing pressure differences relative FN-T were investigated. SN-T was performed on 74 suspected of having OSA. Those diagnosed OSA who completed underwent HA-T for 2-3 weeks. then adhered at least 70% prescribed nights. Ultimately, 29 met the...
Pregabalin is used to treat neuropathic pain and has shown analgesic properties in postoperative pain. The aim of this study was investigate the effectiveness safety pregabalin reducing patients after septoplasty.Forty-seven scheduled for elective septoplasty were randomly assigned groups that received either (150 mg) or placebo, both one hour before surgery 12 hours initial dose. Pain (verbal numerical rating scale, VNRS) side effect assessments performed at 6, 12, 24, 24 48...
Background Although septoplasty provides adequate correction of septal deviation, patients are not always satisfied with the procedure. The degree satisfaction after surgery may be affected by individual differences in perception one's nasal passage changes and emotional factors. aim this study is to identify predictive factors that influence subjective outcomes. Methods Forty‐nine deviation obstruction were enrolled. Forty‐three completed 3 months surgery. Age, gender, allergies, smoking,...
Many studies have reported that pollen-food allergy syndrome (PFAS) can cause anaphylaxis. No comprehensive investigations into anaphylaxis in PFAS been conducted, however. In this study, we investigated the clinical manifestations and risk factors for Korean patients with pollinosis.Data were obtained from a nationwide cross-sectional study previously on pollinosis. Data 273 collected, including demographics, list of culprit fruits vegetables, food allergy. We analyzed 27 compared them...
The risk factors for maxillary fungal ball are largely unknown. aim of this study was to determine whether endodontic treatment teeth is a factor development in the sinus, and identify other possible factors.One hundred twelve case patients diagnosed with (FB group) age gender matched control chronic paranasal rhinosinusitis (PNS were included associations between previous ball. In addition, we reviewed dental extraction status underlying disease both groups analyze ball.There 36.3% FB group...
Objective To investigate the prevalence of Helicobacter pylori (HP) in nasal cavity patients with chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) and to correlate it severity CRS. Study Design Setting Intranasal HP was investigated using rapid urease (CLO) testing immunohistochemical (IHC) analysis confirmed transmission electron microscopy. evaluate sinusitis, CT scans were graded according Lund‐MacKay scoring system, CRS symptom scores recorded. Results Twelve 48 (25.0%) positive, but only 1 29 (3.4%)...
Background Steroid-infused absorbable nasal dressings after endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS) have been used to improve wound healing and reduce the recurrence of polyps. However, their systemic effects are not well known. The purpose this study was evaluate safety steroid-impregnated packing ESS. Methods Patients who underwent bilateral ESS for chronic rhinosinusitis were recruited randomized into two groups. Ten patients in triamcinolone (TA) group received a TA (20 mg)-soaked bioabsorbable...
