Benefits of a Nanosilver Nasal Spray for Postoperative Care of Patients with Chronic Rhinosinusitis

Abstract

To explore tending to patients with chronic rhinosinusitis using a nanosilver compound. From February 2014 to August 2016, 112 surgical patients with chronic rhinosinusitis were randomly divided into an observation group and a control group. Patients in the observation group were given antibiotics, care to retain hemostasis, and other treatment after surgery. Patients in the observation group were administered treatment with bonbijing nano antibacterial water spray post-surgery. The progress of both groups recorded. Nanosilver is metallic silver of nanometer size. Nanosilver particles in the spray are approximately 25 nm in diameter, strongly inhibit growth of or kill dozens of pathogenic microorganisms, e.g., Escherichia coli. Postoperative pain in patients in the observation group was less than pain in the control group patients (p < 0.05). Symptom and sign scores in observation group patients were lower than scores in control group patients (p < 0.05). Incidence of adverse reactions and complications was also lower in observation group patients (p<0.05). Use of nanosilver for tending to patients with chronic rhinosinusitis after surgery can significantly improve clinical symptoms and signs, and reduce adverse reactions and complications.
