Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Major Symptom Score (MSS) Assessed by the Investigator
MSS: sum of the 5 main rhinosinusitis symptoms which are: rhinorrhea (anterior discharge), postnasal drip, nasal congestion, headache, facial pain/pressure. Each symptom is individually evaluated using the following 4-point rating scale (scoring system): 0 = none/not present, 1 = mild, 2 = moderate, 3 = severe. Thus the MSS ranges from a minimum of 0 to a maximum of 15 score points.

Limitations and Caveats
Headache and facial pain are rated by investigator based on the description of the patient. This was done to ensure a uniform rating of symptom severity across the investigational sites but nevertheless subjective and open to error.
