Analyzing results after external septorhinoplasty for breathing issues
Part of Ear, nose & throat, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This trial looks at how well an external septorhinoplasty (surgery to improve the nasal passage) works for people with long-term nasal blockage. It mainly involves filling out questionnaires so the researchers can analyze outcomes over time.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are at least 18 years old
- Your nasal blockage symptoms have lasted at least 1 year
- Your blockage has a clear anatomic cause (like a deviated septum or nasal valve collapse)
- You have not had a nasal fracture or nasal surgery in the past year
- You can answer questionnaires on your own
- You have not used cocaine in the past year

This study tracks how patients feel and function after nose surgery that uses a piece of cartilage (septal extension graft) to reshape the nose. Researchers want to understand both the benefits and any complications to improve future care.
This study uses computer modeling to understand nasal breathing. It compares people without nasal symptoms and those with chronic nasal blockage from a deviated septum, to see if modeling can help diagnose the cause.
This trial tests whether a simple device that measures your breathing (AAR) is reliable enough to help doctors decide if surgery is needed for nasal obstruction. It looks at patients who already plan to have surgery to see if this test matches what the surgeon finds.
This trial tests a special throat coating to reduce sore throat after septoplasty, a nose surgery to improve breathing. It may help patients with severe nasal blockage feel more comfortable after surgery.
This study is looking at healthy people to understand how certain cells in the nose work. It will compare them to people with sinus problems to learn what goes wrong in chronic sinusitis with nasal polyps.
This study uses a sleep test to look at breathing and sleep patterns in people with nasal polyps who need surgery because medicine didn’t help. It may help doctors understand how nasal polyps affect sleep and how surgery changes those sleep measurements.
