About this study

Official title: A Randomized Study (With Active Treatment in Both Treatment Groups) to Evaluate How a New Vibration Treatment in the Nose in Patients With Non-allergic Rhinitis Can be Done as Convenient as Possible to the Patient

The purpose of the study is to evaluate how treatment with Kinetic Oscillation Stimulation (KOS) in the nasal cavity in patients with non-allergic rhinitis can be optimized to minimize any patient reported discomfort during treatment procedure.

Being tested
PBASE system 1.1 (active treatment)
Medical subject headings
Common Cold

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • PBASE system 1.1 (active treatment)Device

Study groups in NCT02136043
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Group 1ExperimentalInsertion of catheter into nasal cavity carried out by patient. Fixation of catheter during treatment with patient´s hand.
Receives: Device: PBASE system 1.1 (active treatment)
Group 2ExperimentalInsertion of catheter into nasal cavity carried out by health professional. Fixation of catheter during treatment with helmet.
Receives: Device: PBASE system 1.1 (active treatment)

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Pain score on the Visual Analogue Scale

    To evaluate whether patient´s self-administration of catheter into nasal cavity is associated with a different degree of patient-reported pain on Visual Analogue Scales (VAS) compared to when administered by a health professional.

    Measured: Five seconds after placement of catheter in nasal cavity

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Sino-Nasal Outcome Test-22 (SNOT-22) questionnaire

    To evaluate if treatment effect (assessed 15 minutes before treatment and 14 days after treatment) by SNOT-22 is different between treatment groups.

    Measured: Baseline, day 14

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing PBASE system 1.1 (active treatment) in people with Non-allergic Rhinitis., run by Halmstad County Hospital at 1 site in Sweden.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 6 inclusion and 14 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 27 May 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Sweden. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Pain score on the Visual Analogue Scale (time frame: Five seconds after placement of catheter in nasal cavity). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 27 May 2015.
