Evidence:Topical Delivery

review showed that intranasal steroids decrease polyp size, which we believe would provide some relief of nasal

Systemic Steroid Delivery

  • Cochrane Database 2011 Jul6;(7):CD005232
  • “The authors found three randomised controlled trials [166

patients], albeit of moderate to poor quality, that suggest a short-term benefit of oral steroids in patients with multiple nasal polyps. To address the issue more thoroughly well- designed, prospective, randomised controlled trials are still needed.”

  • Parameters:

– Polyp size (endoscopic) – Symptom questionnaires – QOL

Causes of FESS Failure

blind, controlled clinical trial

– Patients undergoing FESS for CRS refractory to medical management of 3 months duration or more – With or without Nasal Polyps – Primary or revision surgery – Intra-patient control design – Oral steroids not permitted in a 14 day run-in – IV steroids given perioperatively

  • 4mg – 20 mg

– No post operative steroids until Day 30 – 14 Day course of Amoxicillin with Clavulonic Acid begun one day preoperatively – Saline spray permitted throughout

How the Coated Stent Works…

  • Function of the Stent

– Mechanical function

  • Spring like mechanical function
  • Placement of drug in key location
  • Patency of ethmoid cavity

– Pharmacological function

  • Systemic steroid side effects obviated
  • Decreased polyp formation and inflammation
  • Improves mechanical function of stent

– Adhesions/stenosis

– Bioabsorbable

Benefit of Steroid Elution: Historical Comparison

  • Current Stent Study:

– Adhesion rate with steroid: 5.3% – Adhesion rate without steroid: 21.1% – P=0.0313

  • Historical Comparison:

– Wormald et al., AJR, 2006 Jan-Feb; 20(1):7-10 PMID 16539287

  • Hyaluronic Acid (HA) Packs to No packing
  • HA adhesion rate 21%

– Miller and Steward, Oto-HNS, 2003;128:862-869 PMID 12825038

  • HA to non absorbable packing: 35% overall with adhesions, each

group similar (~25%)

  • 19% required surgical (in office) intervention

– 14,30,45 days post FESS

  • Comparison b/t onsite raters and

the panel: strong agreement Categoric variables:

  • MT position

– Kappa = .499, prevalence index =0.925

  • Adhesions

– Kappa=.364, prevalence index=0.829 Continuous variables:

  • Inflammation

– Reliability coefficient=0.554

  • Crusting

– Reliability coefficient=0.620

Bland-Altman Plots

Smith et. al., Laryngoscope, 122:230-236, January 2012

  • The results suggest that the

endoscopic scoring parameters have acceptable interexaminer reproducibility for both categoric and continuous data elements and that parameters are suitable for evaluating the middle meatal and ethmoid sinus anatomy in postsurgical patients.
