NOSE Score Outcome and Response Rate in Patients with and Without Prior Nasal Surgery.
Group | Number Evaluated | 26‐Week NOSE mean† | SD | 95% CI | Min‐Max | Responder (yes/n) | Responder (%)‡ | 95% CI§ | |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
No Prior Surgery | 22 | 22.3 | 19.2 | 13.8–30.8 | 0–90 | 21/22 | 95.5 | 78.2–99.2 | |
Prior Surgery | 27* | 26.7 | 21.5 | 18.2–35.2 | 0–75 | 25/27 | 92.6 | 76.6–97.9 |
There were 28 subjects with prior surgery but one missed the 26‐week evaluation.
