Avaliação da qualidade de vida após sinusectomia endoscópica para rinossinusite crônica

Abstract: Chroni c rhinosinusitis is a disease of undefined etiology that significantly impacts the quality of life of its patients. Various studies carried out in countries other than Brazil have shown endoscopic sinus surgery as an effective means of treating this condition. Objective:This study aims to analyze, with the aid of SNOT-20, the association between endoscopic sinus surgery and disease-specific quality of life of Brazilian patients treated for chronic rhinosinusitis accompanied or not by nasal polyps.

“…In a study done by Bezarra et al a statistically significant reduction of SNOT-20 scores was seen pre-and postoperatively on SNOT-20 [1.75 (IQR=2.05) vs. 0.90 (IQR=1.65), (p<0.01, Wilcoxon signed-rank test)] as similar to our study. 6 According to a study by Netkovski et al, symptom parameter wise-nasal obstruction was postoperatively improved in 87% (0.61±1.2), post nasal discharge in 74.3% (0.89±0.95), anterior nasal discharge in 70.5% (1.1±1.3), headache in 59.4% (0.72±1.1) and hyposmia in 58.7% (0.51±0.91) of the patients. 4 All preoperative versus postoperative sinusitis manifestations were significantly improved i.e., reached statistical significance following surgery (p<0.05).…”

“…QOL is the unique personal experience that reflects not only one's health status, but also other factors and circumstances pertaining to the patient's life that only he/she can describe. 6 QOL measures validly and reliably connected to CRS are crucial in the reassessment of CRS treatment outcomes.…”
