Abstract
Adenotomy is one of the most common surgeries on the part of ENT organs in childhood, it is usually performed under endotracheal anesthesia.
Purpose. To evaluate the effectiveness of the spray containing sea water and brown algae extract in the early postoperative period in children after adenotomy.
Characteristics of the children and research methods. 24 patients aged from 4 to 10 years (12 boys and 12 girls) were examined and treated in the Otorhinolaryngology Department of the Perm Regional Children’s Clinical Hospital. All patients underwent adenotomy due to hypertrophy of the pharyngeal tonsil of the II–III degree, they received antibiotics for 5 days after surgery. The patients were divided into 2 groups: Group 1 (study group, n=12) used, Aqualor Protect spray for irrigation therapy of the nasal cavity and nasopharynx; Group 2 (comparison group, n=12) used a spray with isotonic sodium chloride solution for irrigation therapy. 2 doses of saline solution were sprayed into each nostril 4 times for 4 days.
Results. According to the medical examination, the study group demonstrated more pronounced improvement of the following indicators (visual analogue scale scores): overall health (p<0.05), swelling of the nasal cavity (p<0.05), hyperemia of the mucous membrane of the nasal cavity (p<0.05), improved nasal breathing (p<0.034), the presence of mucous-hemorrhagic crusts in the nasal cavity (p<0.0001), general feelings (p<0.02).
Conclusion. The spray with seawater and brown algae extract is more effective than nasal spray with isotonic solution in the early postoperative period in children after adenotomy.
