Official title
Utilization of a Microcurrent Device for Postoperative Pain Following Functional Endoscopic Sinus Surgery: a Randomized Controlled Trial
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The purpose of this study is to investigate whether daily use of a microcurrent neuromodulation device, which applies a small current of electricity to the forehead and maxillary region, will decrease the pain experienced by patients in the days following functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS). This study is a prospective randomized controlled study. Enrolled subjects will be randomized (1:1) to receive either an active neuromodulation study device or a sham device that appears identical to the active device while emitting no therapeutic microcurrent. Subjects will self-treat with the device at home and will be followed for 2 weeks after FESS.
