NCT02559284

Brief Summary

The main objective of this study is to compare the effects of RESPIMER® NetiFlow® solution and device versus saline solution (0.9% NaCl), the standard treatment, used with RESPIMER® NetiFlow® device, both used postoperative care, in the context of ethmoid sinus surgery, at 14 days post-surgery.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Superior healing of nasal mucosa repair 14 days following endoscopic sinus surgery, between the RESPIMER® NetiFlow® solution and the saline solution arms

    Based on a ≥8 points difference in the total RHINO QoL score between the two groups.

    D14 meaning 14 days (plus or minus 3 days) after surgery

Secondary Outcomes (8)

  • Efficacy in optimizing airway clearance and restoring respiratory health, as well as overall quality of life

    Pre-inclusion, D7, D14, D21 and D28

  • Assess and compare the crusting

    Pre-inclusion, D7, D14, D21 and D28

  • Assess and compare the tolerability

    Pre-inclusion, D7, D14, D21 and D28

  • Additional details on duration of nasal washes

    D7, D14, D21 and D28 after surgery

  • Satisfaction and perceived efficacy of the nasal solution

    D7, D14, D21 and D28 after surgery

  • +3 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (2)

A - Experimental

EXPERIMENTAL

Treatment Arm: 100 patients using Respimer® NetiFlow® solution as standard treatment for healing of nasal surgery wounds following an endoscopic ethmoidectomy as a postoperative care after ethmoid sinus surgery

Other: A postoperative care after ethmoid sinus surgery

B - Comparator

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Control Arm: 100 patients using saline solution (0.9% NaCl) as standard treatment for healing of nasal surgery wounds following an endoscopic ethmoidectomy as a postoperative care after ethmoid sinus surgery

Other: A postoperative care after ethmoid sinus surgery

Interventions

A comparison of two products used for nasal cavity cleansing, at the rate of 4 washes/day (240mL per wash), as local postoperative care following endoscopic sinus surgery. This surgery, known as an ethmoidectomy, aims to improve sinus ventilation, treat the chronically infected area, and remove polyps that cause nasal obstruction. Detailed information concerning the purpose of nasal irrigation, as well as how to use and clean the device, will be given to patients upon inclusion. The nasal washing procedure will be as follow: * Washing both nostrils using 180mL of solution distributed equally on each side to remove crusting and clotting * Gentle blowing of the nose * Rinsing both nostrils with the remaining 60mL of solution distributed equally on each side (no nose-blowing).
