Examining sleep issues in patients with nasal polyps
Official title: Effects of Endoscopic Sinus Surgery on Sleep Disorder in Patients With Chronic Rhinosinusitis With Polyps
Run by University Hospital, Lille · NCT03725956 · Data updated 2026-11-12
This study looks at how nasal polyps affect sleep quality and whether surgery can help improve sleep for people who haven't found relief with other treatments.

Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Ideal candidates are patients with chronic rhinosinusitis and nasal polyps who have not responded to corticosteroid therapy and are scheduled for endoscopic sinus surgery.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients who have had previous nasal surgery for polyposis or those already receiving continuous positive airway pressure therapy for obstructive sleep apnea may not benefit from this study.
A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.
What this trial studies
This study investigates the impact of nasal polyposis on sleep quality and the effects of endoscopic sinus surgery on sleep disturbances. It focuses on patients who have undergone surgery for chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps, particularly those who have not responded to corticosteroid treatment. The study aims to objectively assess sleep quality through polysomnography and analyze improvements post-surgery.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this study could lead to improved treatment strategies for patients suffering from sleep disturbances related to nasal polyposis.
How similar studies have gone: While few studies have objectively assessed the impact of nasal polyposis on sleep quality, this approach is relatively novel and has not been extensively tested.
