About this study

Introduction: Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) is a significant health problem increasing in both incidence and prevalence. It calls into attention consensus about diagnosing, assessing symptoms and treatment of patients with CRS. Therefore a validated Danish measure of health-related quality of life in sinonasal disease is needed.

Method: The Sinonasal Outcome measure 22 (SNOT-22) was translated into Danish and reproducibility was evaluated by test-retesting 40 patients with CRS. The statistical analyses used, were Pearson´s correlation coefficient, Cronbach´s alfa, Kappa and Bland-Altman´s Plot. Reproducibility was also tested looking at subscales within the SNOT-22.

Result: The results show good internal correlation with Cronbach´s alfa at 0.83 in the initial test and 0.92 in the retest. Pearson was 0.70 (p<0.001) revealing good correlation between the initial scores and the retests scores. Kappa was calculated for each item with a mean value of 0.61 showing substantial agreement. Paired t-test revealed no significant difference in the subscales.

Conclusion: The Danish version of SNOT-22 is recommended for Danish clinicians and researches as a patient-reported measure of outcome in sino-nasal disorders such as rhinosinusitis and nasal polyposis.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Reproducibility of Sinonasal Outcome test 22 (time frame: From the time of fullfilling the first SNOT-22 to fullfilling the second SNOT-22 after 14 days). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01254916, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
