“…However recent publication suggest that it is also a validated outcome that can measure the improvement of patient's symptoms post Nasal Obstruction and sinus Surgical procedures, as septoplasty, turbinoplasty [2], and endoscopic sinsus surgery [3].…”

The Sino-nasal outcome test (SNOT22) has been widely adopted in clinical practice and has been declared as the most suitable sinonasal outcome scoring system. It is simple disease specific encompassing 22 symptoms reflecting health burden of the rhino- logical patients. Each item quantifies symptoms severity from 0(no problem) to 5 (worst symptom). The sum of each item results in a maximum score of 110. High score indicates poor outcome.

“…Additional tools, such as SNOT-22 [17], also demonstrate utility in evaluating the patient-centred outcomes of nasal obstruction and septoplasty [18]. Other subjective tools, including the Glasgow Benefit Index have demonstrated improvement following septoplasty [19], and objective measures, including acoustic rhinometry are effective in evaluating septoplasty outcomes [20].…”

The Ottawa Valve Collapse scale (OVCS) was developed to classify the severity of nasal valve collapse (NVC) in patients with nasal obstruction. The goal of this study was to determine, in patients who have nasal obstruction due to a septal deviation, whether those with a higher OVCS grade will have a reduced improvement in patient-centered clinical outcomes at one-year following septoplasty with inferior turbinate diathermy compared to those with a normal or lower OVCS grade. This study was a prospective study of 78 patients who completed an assessment using the NOSE questionnaire before and at one-year following the surgical intervention. A repeated-measures ANOVA was used to asses for differences in scores between OVCS groups. There was a significant improvement in NOSE scores one year post-septoplasty (p < 0.01). There was no difference in NOSE score improvement when comparing the grades of the OVCS at one-year (F = 0.09, p = 0.968). Though the OVCS was designed to categorize the severity of NVC preoperatively, there is no evidence that it is helpful in predicting which patients will demonstrate poor results following septoplasty. Future studies are required to further evaluate the OVCS and whether complimentary assessments will improve its clinical utility.

“…The 22‐item Sino‐Nasal Outcome Test (SNOT‐22) is a widely applied patient‐reported outcome instrument used to assess the severity of symptoms associated with different nose conditions. It is a validated questionnaire of disease‐specific, quality‐of‐life related measures of sinonasal function (see Hopkins et al, Kordjian and Schousboe, and De los Santos et al for further details). Preoperative and postoperative scores were recorded from the patients (see below).…”

Annually, hundreds of thousands of surgical interventions to correct nasal airway obstruction are performed throughout the world. Recent studies have noted that a significant number of patients have persistent symptoms of nasal obstruction postoperatively. In the present work, we introduce a new methodology that raises the success rate of nasal cavity surgery. In this procedure, the surgeon performs virtual surgery on a 3D nasal model of a patient prior to the real surgery. The main goal of the methodology is to guide the surgeon throughout the virtual operation using mathematical estimators based on CFD results. The virtual surgery intervention ends as soon as the estimators fall into a region of a Cartesian coordinate system with a high success probability. This region is defined according to a statistical analysis of estimators corresponding to sets of healthy and diseased cavities. As examples of this application, this study includes 2 surgical operations performed with this innovative methodology on patients with severe nasal obstruction. The patients underwent nasal surgery according to the final nasal geometry revealed by CFD-guided virtual surgery. Currently, both subjects show high degrees of satisfaction.
