Registered outcomes11

Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.

ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryVolume of Blood Lossduring the surgery (from the moment of injection of local anesthetic in the nasal cavity to the end of application of local hemostatis agents, about 1 to 5 hours)
Blood loss was determined by subtracting the volume of irrigation used intraoperatively from the total volume of fluid in the collection canisters.The Neptune Waste Management System will be used for this purpose. This is a closed suction system that digitally counts the amount of fluid suctioned.
PrimaryNumber of Participants for Whom Surgical Field Visualization Was Deemed Severely Compromisedduring the surgery (from the moment of injection of local anesthetic in the nasal cavity to the end of application of local hemostatis agents, about 1 to 5 hours)
Surgeons rated the surgical field using the Boezaart score (which ranges from 0 to 5, with 5 indicating the most compromised surgical field), and this outcome measure reports the number of participants with a Boezaart score of 5. Boezaart scoring is as follows: 0 (No bleeding, cadaveric conditions); 1 (Slight bleeding, no suctioning required), 2 (Slight bleeding, occasional suctioning required; 3 (Slight bleeding, frequent suctioning required; bleeding threatens surgical field a few seconds after suction is removed); 4 (Moderate bleeding, frequent suctioning required, and bleeding threatens surgical field directly after suction is removed); 5 (Severe bleeding, constant suctioning required; bleeding appears faster than can be removed by suction; surgical field severely threatened and surgery usually not possible).
PrimaryPlatelet Function as Assessed by Thromboelastography (TEG) Platelet Mapping (PM)baseline
Thromboelastography-Platelet Mapping will be performed to assess the effect of the anesthetics on platelet function. Data are reported as Maximum Amplitude (MA) in millimeters (mm). A greater MA value indicates stronger clotting and greater platelet function.
PrimaryPlatelet Function as Assessed by Thromboelastography (TEG) Platelet Mapping (PM)During time in post-anesthesia care unit (PACU) (about 30 minutes to 1.5 hours)
Thromboelastography-Platelet Mapping will be performed to assess the effect of the anesthetics on platelet function. Data are reported as Maximum Amplitude (MA) in millimeters (mm). A greater MA value indicates stronger clotting and greater platelet function.
PrimaryNasal Blood Flow to the Sinonasal Mucosa as Assessed by the Rhinolux System0-5 minutes after induction of anesthesia
The Rhinolux system was used to measure nasal blood flow (it assessed changes in the swelling of the nasal mucosa by a tissue light absorption technique similar to that used in pulse oximetry)--more negative optical density unit values indicate greater nasal blood flow and less light.
PrimaryNasal Blood Flow to the Sinonasal Mucosa as Assessed by the Rhinolux System60-90 minutes after induction of anesthesia
The Rhinolux system was used to measure nasal blood flow (it assessed changes in the swelling of the nasal mucosa by a tissue light absorption technique similar to that used in pulse oximetry)--negative values indicate greater nasal blood flow and less light.
SecondaryDuration of Surgeryduring the surgery (from the moment of injection of local anesthetic in the nasal cavity to the end of application of local hemostatis agents, about 1 to 5 hours)
SecondaryQuality of Recovery as Indicated by Pain Rating Using a Visual Analogue Scale (VAS)During time in post-anesthesia care unit (PACU) (about 30 minutes to 1.5 hours)The VAS ranged from 1-10, with 1 being no pain and 10 being worst pain.
SecondaryQuality of Recovery as Indicated by Number of Participants With NauseaDuring time in post-anesthesia care unit (PACU) (about 30 minutes to 1.5 hours)
SecondaryQuality of Recovery as Indicated by Recovery Time in the PACUDuring time in post-anesthesia care unit (PACU) (about 30 minutes to 1.5 hours)
