U.S., Oct. 8 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07862283) titled 'Chitosan-Based, Gelatin Sponge and Non-absorbable Nasal Packing After Endoscopic Sinus Surgery' on Sept. 29.

Brief Summary: This single-centre prospective study compared three nasal packing materials used after endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS) in adults with chronic rhinosinusitis without nasal polyps: a chitosan-based bioresorbable pack (PosiSep X), an absorbable gelatin sponge (Spongostan) and a non-absorbable polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) sinus pack. Sixty patients were allocated in three consecutive blocks of 20 by order of enrolment, with the order of materials determined by drawing lots (first 20 PosiSep X, next 20 Spongostan, last 20 ...
