Official Title: Medico-economic Evaluation of the Balloon Sinuplasty as Mini-invasive Treatment of Frontal Sinusitis by a Randomized Multicenter Prospective Trial
Brief Summary:
The sinuplasty balloon offers a more physiological first of the sinuses which minimizes risks associated to traditional surgery. Its atraumatic characteristic also helps to reduce the risk of bleeding (so any use of Pack), limit scarring ransom, reduce the post-operative pain, ensure faster return to daily life activities (reduction of the average length of hospitalization). Patient's quality of life would be improved (SNOT-22 questionnaire) and reduction of post-operative pain score seams decrease on EVA.
The economic impact of the sinuplasty balloon appears very favourable and fits into the strategy of development of the ambulatory practice.
