About this study

Comparative two methods of adenoidectomy means the coblation adenoidectomy with the cold dissection adenoidectomy specifically inquire which method is safer and more efficient.

Read the detailed description

Obstructive sleep apnea(osa) in children is a very bother and frequent problem with clinical and behavioral impacts. The hypertrophied adenoid tissue obstructs the air way in the nasopharynx that initiates the common symptoms. The treatment from that concerning problems is in the operation rooms by diversity surgical methods, the very older one is the cold dissection adenoidectomy.

Recently many surgeons use the coblation system as a preferred method for adenoidectomy. This method was proof as a safe and efficient especially referring to the bleeding and the dehydration risk .

Many children that operated by the cold dissection forced to perform another one or two operations presumably due to the adenoid tissue that did not removed completely from the first operation .

our hypothesis is that the coblation systemis a safe and eficient method for adenoidectomy.

The aims of this project is to verify if our theory is corect by blinded comparision between two methods.

What is being measured

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

  1. safety (bleeding , dehydration or any other complications)

    measure the event of bleeding , dehydration or any other complications

    Measured: percent of bleeding and dehydration

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. efficacy (pain post operation by scales evaluation)

    pain post operation by scales evaluation and determination whether adenoid tissue left behind after each methods of operation

    Measured: pain and examination for residual adenoid tissue

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing coblation (COBLATION II surgery system ,CE8001-01) and cold dissection adenoidectomy in people with Sleep Apnea, Obstructive, run by Hillel Yaffe Medical Center.

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 2 inclusion and 3 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 9 Dec 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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?

safety (bleeding , dehydration or any other complications) (time frame: percent of bleeding and dehydration). 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 9 Dec 2014; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 29 Oct 2026.
