Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Technical Success: Sinuses Successfully Treated With Balloon DilationIndex procedureNumber of successful dilations out of all attempted dilations. Success is defined as the device successfully delivered to the target sinus, inflated, deflated, and withdrawn from the treated sinus.
ComplicationsIndex procedure through 3-month follow-upNumber of subjects who experience complications. Complications are defined as serious device or procedure related adverse events.

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Change in Quality of Life From Baseline Through CompletionBaseline to 6-month follow-upChange in sinonasal symptom severity between the baseline preprocedure assessment and follow-up assessment. Sinus symptom severity is measured using the Sinus and Nasal Quality of Life Survey (SN-5) that is a validated tool for use in pediatric patients (completed by caregivers). The 5 survey items are scored from 1 (best) to 7 (worst) and averaged to provide an overall score.
Number of Subjects Who Undergo a Revision or Additional Surgery During the StudyProcedure-6 month follow upAny surgical intervention that is performed in the sinus(es) following the index procedure will be reported
