About this study

The purpose of the research is to examine the effectiveness of navigation in maxillary sinus balloon dilation for the treatment of chronic maxillary rhinosinusitis. Adult patients (18 and over) with a confirmed diagnosis of chronic maxillary rhinosinusitis without nasal polyposis (CRSwNP) will undergo maxillary balloon sinusotomy. Block randomization will be performed to determine which side will receive balloon sinusotomy with navigation and which will have balloon sinusotomy using traditional anatomic landmarks. Participants will be followed for approximately 1 month post-procedure for a total study participation time of approximately 3 months.

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: Yes

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • Adults 18 years of age or older
  • Candidate for primary endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS) for chronic maxillary rhinosinusitis without nasal polyposis (CRSwNP)
  • Failed medical (non-surgical) therapy

Exclusion criteria

  • History of previous sinus surgery
  • Presence of nasal polyps
  • Extensive sinonasal osteogeneis
  • Cystic fibrosis
  • Presence of sinonasal tumors
  • Any records flagged "break the glass" or "research opt out."
  • Any additional finding which in the opinion of the investigator precludes patient from participating in the study

Treatment and study plan

RELIEVA SPINPLUS® NAV Balloon Sinusplasty System

Device

The non-navigated device being used is the RELIEVA SPINPLUS® Balloon Sinusplasty System and the navigated device being used is the RELIEVA SPINPLUS® NAV Balloon Sinusplasty System. Both devices being used are standard devices that are currently FDA approved and used in practice for sinus dilation at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center.

Other names: RELIEVA SPINPLUS® Balloon Sinusplasty System

Primary outcomes

  1. Success Rate

    Time frame: 12 months

    There is a 30% expected improvement of success, in favor of navigation over non-navigation balloon sinuplasty devices.
