NCT00645762

Brief Summary

This study is designed to evaluate safety and effectiveness of a less invasive procedure to treat maxillary only, or maxillary and anterior ethmoid, chronic sinusitis. Additionally, this study will assess the feasibility of performing the procedure under local anesthesia.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

  • Incidences of Device-related or Procedure-related Complications

    Through 12 months post-procedure

  • Patency of the Treated Area as Verified by CT Scan

    Post-procedure Patency was assessed using a CT scan 3 months post-procedure. The osteomeatal complex was assessed for patency by physicians.

    Post-treatment at 3 months

  • Symptomatic Score Change- Sinonasal Outcome (SNOT) 20 Score Improvement

    Symptomatic change in SNOT 20 scores on a 5-point Likert scale where "0" = no problem to "5" = problem as bad as it can be were calculated. Baseline scores and 12 month post-procedure follow-up scores were calculated and compared. A score reduction of at least 0.8 (-0.8) from baseline to 12 months is considered statistically significant and clinically impactful.

    Post-treatment through 12 months
