Importance Patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) allow clinicians and researchers to assess health-related information from a patient’s perspective. These have been used more frequently over the last several decades, but an associated minimal clinically important difference (MCID) is needed optimize their utility. This narrative review identified top 100 most-cited otolaryngology-related PROM development validation publications assessed presence characteristics of PROMs’ MCID....
The purpose of this study is to determine the impact demographics and sinonasal comorbidities on revision rate functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS) for chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS).Although (ESS) often successful in providing long-term relief patients suffering from CRS, can occur. There conflicting literature race FESS outcomes.A single-center retrospective cohort that underwent CRS between January 1, 2015 June 2021 at a single tertiary care academic center.A total 682 ages 18 89...
The COVID-19 pandemic affected millions of people and has become a dominant etiology olfactory dysfunction (OD). No interventions with definitive clinical utility exist. Gabapentin represents potential therapy for COVID-19-induced OD.
The purpose of this study is to characterize the presentation, outcomes, and barriers care for White non-White patients undergoing endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS).ESS often successful in providing long-term relief suffering from chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS). Literature that uses robust measures socioeconomic status (SES) assess ESS outcomes limited.A retrospective matched cohort who underwent CRS between 1/1/2015 6/1/2021 at a single tertiary academic center was conducted. were 1-to-1 by sex...
Approximately 150 million individuals in the US snore absence of obstructive sleep apnea (primary snoring), but few studies have examined efficacy treatments for snoring or evaluated effect sleeping partners.
Optometrists play a preventive role in diabetic care by detecting early signs of retinopathy (DR), leading cause blindness adults. This study demonstrates that additional training can improve optometrists' ability to assess the presence and severity DR individuals with diabetes.This aimed determine impact quality improvement intervention involving education, assessment, feedback on improving evaluation referral patterns optometrists regard their patients diabetes.A pre-interventional...
KEY POINTS COVID-induced parosmia is associated with anxiety, depression, and suicidal ideation. Parosmic patients have low rates of treatment benefit little hope for improvement. Hyposmia may mitigate the quality-of-life burden in parosmia.
Background: Symptomatic peripheral artery disease (PAD) is prevalent and targeted therapies include optimal medical care (OMC), supervised exercise therapy (SET) revascularization (ST). Although most PAD trials focus on objective outcomes, improvement in quality of life important to the patient. The Supervised Exercise, Stent Revascularization, or Medical Therapy for Claudication (CLEVER) Trial examined longitudinal patient-reported outcomes assess response OMC, SET ST. predictors...
To evaluate clinical characteristics and outcomes of patients diagnosed with anterior (ASB) or lateral skull base (LSB) spontaneous cerebrospinal fluid (sCSF) leak.Single center retrospective review sCSF leaks ASB LSB between 1/1/2009 11/1/2019 (n = 69). Body mass index (BMI), gender, age at diagnosis, origin CSF leak (ASB vs LSB), surgical approach, lumbar drain use, recurrence, pre-operative diagnosis diabetes mellitus (DM), obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) were collected.69 included in this...
Background and Objectives: Performing an effective maxillary antrostomy is critical to improving chronic sinusitis symptomatology. Incomplete dissection of the uncinate process failure incorporate natural drainage pathway may lead recirculation need for revision surgery. The purpose this study determine if 70° endoscopes provide added value in determining incomplete or residual disease. Methods: Prospective 35 sinuses from 18 patients undergoing FESS Chronic Rhinosinusitis (CRS) between...
To determine outcomes of eyes with diabetic macular edema (DME) and best visual acuity (BVA) 20/25 or better in routine clinical practice.Retrospective study 72 patients DME BVA better. Patients were divided by anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) treatment regimen: early (Group A), delayed B), none C).Group A had higher baseline central subfield thickness (CST) (325 ± 62 µm) compared to Groups B (292 24 C (296 35 (P = .033). All groups similar 24-month CST (299 µm, 280 64 296 65...
