Application of herbal means "Sinudafen" in complex treatment of acute rhinosinusitis

Abstract

Relevance: The urgency of the problem of treatment of acute viral rhinosinusitis stems from the frequency of the incidence of this pathology and the use of various treatments, among which the greatest concern is the unwarranted appointment of antibacterial therapy. The combination of Sinudafen extracts allows to normalize the secretion and viscosity of mucus by stimulating the secretory cells of the mucous membrane of the upper respiratory tract, reduce swelling in the area around the sinuses and restore drainage, detect anti-inflammatory, immunostimulatory, antiviral and antiviral effects. The purpose of the study was to study the effectiveness of treatment of acute rhinosinusitis with the use of herbal Sinudafen. Results and discussion: The study involved 94 patients with acute rhinosinusitis. Some patients with appropriate symptoms had to be prescribed antibacterial therapy. Thus, according to the results of the appointment of antibacterial therapy, we obtained a distribution when calculating the statistical significance of the results of such a distribution P = 0.043 (<0.05). That is, the reduction in the number of prescriptions of antibacterial therapy in patients where Sinudafen was used in the treatment was statistically significant. Objective assessment of the degree of dysfunction of nasal breathing was performed using anterior active rhinomanometry (PARM). Assessment of subjective sensations was performed using a visual - analog scale for four main symptoms of the disease: nasal congestion, rhinorrhea, facial pain, loss of smell. Conclusions: The use of Sinudafen in the complex treatment of acute rhinosinusitis accelerates the dynamics of the disappearance of its symptoms such as rhinorrhea and facial pain. The use of Sinudafen in the treatment of acute rhinosinusitis significantly reduces the frequency of antibacterial therapy.
