Additional information regarding sample selection. | A database of general practitioners and non-hospital ENT specialists provided by Wanadoo was used for selection of physicians. General practitioners and ENT specialists were to include prospectively over a period of 4 weeks patients with an episode of acute sinusitis diagnosed according to criteria of the physician. To avoid conducting the study over a period with marked ecological features such as a period of epidemic influenza or respiratory syncytial virus that can interfere with diagnosis and / or treatment of acute sinusitis, the study was conducted over two four-week periods: March / April and September / October. Each physician was to include the first patients meeting the study inclusion criteria (5 during the first wave of inclusion and 6 in the second). |
Database objective | |
Main objective | The study objectives were to describe the management of acute sinusitis in real-life conditions of prescription and to evaluate the effectiveness of the initial therapeutic strategy. |
Inclusion criteria | Patient consulting for acute sinusitis diagnosed according to criteria of the practitioner; Patient without a previous episode of acute sinusitis during the two months preceding diagnosis; Patient aged 18 years and over; Patient agreeing to participate in the study; Patient not included in a clinical trial (Huriet-Sérusclat); Patient who may be followed for two months; Patient showing no severe active disease (life-threatening in the next three months). |
