Propel Drug-Eluting Sinus Stent Family Open Cohort

The purpose of this study is to confirm the long-term clinical safety and performance, acceptability of identified risks, and to detect emerging risks based on factual evidence for the PROPEL family of products when used according to labeling (in patients with chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) undergoing sinus surgery). Additionally, this study intends to collect data on use of corticosteroid-eluting implants in the European CRS population. Data collected will be used to ensure continued consistency between clinical data, the information materials supplied by the manufacturer, and the risk management documentation.

Primary outcomes

  1. Long-term safety and efficacy of corticosteroid-eluting implants in patients with CRS undergoing Functional Endoscopic Sinus Surgery (FESS)

    Time frame: 6 months

    The primary efficacy endpoint is Sino-Nasal Outcome Test 22 item (SNOT-22) total score change from baseline to Month 6. The SNOT-22 assesses 22 symptoms associated with Chronic Rhinosinusitis (CRS) with a value from 0 (no problem) to 5 (problem as bad as it can be). The total score is assessed by summing the score for each of the 22 items. Total SNOT-22 scores of 20 and greater in patients with CRS meet criteria defined by European Position Paper on Rhinosinusitis and Nasal Polyps 2020 (EPOS 2020) as indicated for Functional Endoscopic Sinus Surgery (FESS). Baseline SNOT-22 total scores are expected to be higher at baseline prior to FESS. A decrease in SNOT-22 score at 6 months would indicate improvement in the patient's CRS symptoms.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Endoscopic evaluation

    Time frame: 12 months

    Endoscopic evaluation scoring from baseline to month 3, 6, and12. Endoscopic evaluation is the physician's assessment via endoscopy of the adhesion/scarring, polyps, patency, polypoid oedema, and middle turbinate lateralization of the sinuses from 0 (none) to 3-4 (most severe) prior to FESS, and following FESS and Propel stent placement at 3, 6 and 12 months. Lower scores at follow-up would indicate improvement in the patient's CRS and healing compared to baseline.
