Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

  • Nasal Obstruction

    questionnaire entitled Nasal Obstruction Syndrome Evaluation, known as NOSE score is used to evaluate the improvement in nasal obstruction This score has 5 questions about life quality. Each receives a score from 0 to 4 and these are summed up and multiplied by 20. The total NOSE score ranges from 0 to 100

    3 months

  • Nasal Discharge

    rhinorrhea conventional visual analogue scale (VAS) is used to evaluate nasal Discharge. Patients were asked to rank their symptoms on a scale of 0-10, with 0 denoting no symptoms and 10 denoting the most severe symptoms, with mild symptoms scoring 0-3, moderate symptoms scoring 4-7, and severe symptoms scoring 8-10

    3 months

  • Crustations

    an endoscopic score of "Lund and Kennedy" is used to evaluate postoperative Crustations Grade 0 Absence of crustations Grade 1 Mild crustations: partially filling the nasal cavity Grade 2 Severe crustations: fully filling the nasal cavity

    3 months

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • intra operative blood loss

    intraoperative

  • Duration of operation (Minutes )

  • Hyposmia

    3 months

Other Outcomes (4)

  • Size Of Anterior part of Turbinate
