Prospective Hemodynamic and Pharmacokinetic Analysis of Oxymetazoline Absorption
A study testing Oxymetazoline in people with Adenoidectomy and Functional Endoscopic Sinus Surgery (FESS), run by Richard Cartabuke at 1 site in United States.
Trial summary
This proposed study will assess the hemodynamic effects and measure the systemic absorption of topically applied oxymetazoline in patients undergoing functional endoscopic sinus surgery, turbinate surgery, or adenoidectomy.

About this study
Official title: Prospective Hemodynamic and Pharmacokinetic Analysis of Oxymetazoline Absorption During Functional Endoscopic or Turbinate Reduction Surgery or Adenoidectomy
This proposed study will assess the hemodynamic effects and measure the systemic absorption of topically applied oxymetazoline in patients undergoing functional endoscopic sinus surgery, turbinate surgery, or adenoidectomy. These patients will be receiving oxymetazoline as standard of care during the surgery.
- Being tested

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
OxymetazolineDrug
Also called Afrin
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| FESS | Active comparator | Patients undergoing functional endoscopic sinus surgery and receiving oxymetazoline as part of their surgery. Receives: Drug: Oxymetazoline |
| Turbinates | Active comparator | Patients undergoing turbinate reduction surgery and receiving oxymetazoline as part of their surgery. Receives: Drug: Oxymetazoline |
| Adenoidectomy | Active comparator | Patients undergoing an adenoidectomy and receiving oxymetazoline as part of their surgery. Receives: Drug: Oxymetazoline |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Blood Pressure Following Oxymetazoline Administration
Blood pressure was recorded at 5 minute intervals until discharge from the post-anesthesia care unit (PACU) or the final blood draw (150 mins. after administration), whichever came first.
Measured: 5 - 150 mins. after administration
Heart Rate Following Oxymetazoline Administration.
Heart rate was recorded at 5 minute intervals until discharge from the post-anesthesia care unit (PACU) or the final blood draw (150 mins. after administration), whichever came first.
Measured: 5 - 150 mins. after administration
Secondary outcomes (2)
Ease of Hemostasis
A six point scale (very easy, easy, usual, some effort, difficult, extremely difficult) completed by the surgeon at the end of surgery.
Measured: intraoperative
Amount of Bleeding
A four point scale (none, minimal, moderate/diffuse ooze, severe/brisk) completed by the surgeon after removal of the oxymetazoline soaked pledgets.
Measured: intraoperative

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A study testing Oxymetazoline in people with Adenoidectomy and Functional Endoscopic Sinus Surgery (FESS), run by Richard Cartabuke at 1 site in United States.
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 4 inclusion and 6 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 18 Sep 2018. 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 United States. 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?
Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 18 Sep 2018). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.
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?
Blood Pressure Following Oxymetazoline Administration (time frame: 5 - 150 mins. after administration). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 18 Sep 2018; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 7 Nov 2026.
