Nasal Obstruction, Septal Deformity
Randomized Trial Comparing Partial Resection of Inferior Turbinate(PRIT) and Radiofrequency Ablation(RFA) for Inferior Turbinate Reduction
Turbinates are large structures in the nasal airway that help the nose to clean and humidify the air we breathe. Inferior turbinates can swell up and block the breathing passage, making it hard to breath.
- Conditions
- Nasal Obstruction, Septal Deformity, Turbinate Hypertrophy
- Trial name
- NCT00358267
- Testing
- Partial Resection of Inferior Turbinates (PRIT), Radiofrequency Ablation (RFA)
- Where
- United States
- Sponsor
- Weill Medical College of Cornell University
Sleep Apnea Syndromes, Nasal Obstruction
Randomized Clinical Trial of Nasal Turbinate Reduction to Improve Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) Outcomes for Sleep Apnea
Obstructive sleep apnea occurs in 2-4% of middle age adults and results in significant morbidity and mortality. The first line therapy is provision of continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) via a nasal mask chronically.
- Conditions
- Sleep Apnea Syndromes, Nasal Obstruction, Turbinate Hypertrophy
- Trial name
- TURBO (NCT00503802)
- Testing
- Radiofrequency Turbinate Reduction
- Where
- 3 sites in United States
- Volunteers
- 242 people

- Trial name
- NCT00651092
- Testing
- bilateral nasal inferior turbinectomy, endoscopic submucosal resection of the inferior turbinates
