ABSTRACT:

Introduction: Functional Endoscopic Sinus Surgery (FESS); Researchers over the past decades have been using endoscopic sinus surgery widely and regarded as an effective and safe mode of treatment for Para Nasal Sinus (PNS) disorders as well as related problems. Objectives: The main objective of the study is to analyse the influence of functional endoscopic sinuses surgery on sleep in patients with chronic rhinosinusitis. Material and methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted in Health department Punjab during October 2019 to February 2020. The age range of patients was 18 to 60 years. The data was collected through the systematically prepared questionnaire. This survey includes all the questions related to self-administration and knowledge of patients related to diseases. All study subjects had a history of rhinosinusitis for a period greater than 12 weeks, and also displayed endoscopic and radiological evidence of nasal inflammation. Results: There were 200 patients which were selected for this study. From these 200 patients there were 96 female and 104 males. The mean age range was 41.2 ± 12.4years. Table 01 shows the demographic values of all selected patients. Conclusion: It is concluded that sleep quality in CRS patients improved following FESS. CRS patients with obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) who had a lower preoperative AHI might concurrently acquire a successful OSAS outcome after FESS.
