Run by Al-Azhar University · NCT06291402 · Data updated 2026-11-12
This study looks at how long nasal packing after nose surgery affects sore throat and discomfort to see if shorter packing times can help patients feel better.

What this trial studies
This observational study investigates the relationship between the duration of nasal packing following septorhinoplasty surgery and the development of postoperative sore throat and pharyngitis. The research aims to understand how nasal packing affects swallowing and throat discomfort, which can lead to patient dissatisfaction. By analyzing the effects of different packing durations, the study seeks to identify potential interventions to improve patient outcomes and satisfaction post-surgery.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this study could lead to improved postoperative care and reduced throat discomfort for patients undergoing septorhinoplasty.
How similar studies have gone: While similar studies have explored postoperative complications in nasal surgeries, this specific focus on nasal packing duration and its effects on pharyngitis is relatively novel.
