Eligibility

Inclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: Patients with sinonasal malignancy, inverted papilloma, adenoid hypertrophy, oropharyngeal malignancy, bronchial asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Patients presenting to ENT OPDwith nasal obstruction for endoscopic sinus surgery to improve their symptoms of obstruction, quantified with SNOT-22, PNIF, By incorporating regular diagnostic OPD procedures along with PNIF meter, to study preoperative and postoperative results expected with cited 75% improvement over 9 months on follow up basisTimepoint: Patients presenting to ENT OPDwith nasal obstruction for endoscopic sinus surgery to improve their symptoms of obstruction, quantified with SNOT-22, PNIF, By incorporating regular diagnostic OPD procedures along with PNIF meter, to study preoperative and postoperative results expected with cited 75% improvement over 9 months on follow up basis

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary outcome will be measured after ruling out lower respiratory pathology. Patient will be taken for Endoscopic Nasal surgery, with base line and preoperative value, followed by postoperative value of PNIF average reading on postoperative day 7-10 and on 1 month follow up. Along with postoperative SNOT-22 questionnaire for post operative clinical symptoms improvement assessment. Timepoint: Secondary outcome will be measured after ruling out lower respiratory pathology.
