[The application of preoperative pulmonary function and FeNO test in patients with chronic rhinosinusitis].

Objective: To explore the application of lung function and exhaled nitric oxide in the evaluation of patients with chronic rhinosinusitis(CRS) with or without polyps who denied bronchial asthma history and planned to undergo endoscopic sinus surgery. Method: Two hundred and thirty-two patients with CRS during April 2016 to April 2018 in our hospital were recruited in this study. All patients accepted lung function and exhaled nitric oxide test before surgery to evaluate whether accompanied with asthma, improvements after standardized drug therapy in patients with asthma. SpO₂, Ppeak and PETCO₂ were monitored and recorded during surgery. Postoperative symptoms of wheezing, shortness of breath, chest tightness and cough were also observed and recorded. Result: ① Of the 232 patients, 18 patients were diagnosed as bronchial asthma, with a positive rate of 7.8%. 17 cases had positive results in bronchodilation test, 1 case was negative whose PEF improvement rate was 40.4%; The mean FeNO of the 18 patients was 46 ppb, of which 16 patients whose FeNO was over 25 ppb; The mean FeNO of 40 cases with normal pulmonary function was over 25ppb, of which 4 cases' FeNO were over 50 ppb;② 232 patients' intraopertive anesthesia monitor showed that SpO₂ were greater than 95%, Ppeak were less than 35 cmH₂O, PETCO₂ were greater than 35 mmHg; ③ Mild dyspnea occurred in a patients diagnosed as asthma the next morning after surgery. The auscultation was scattered in the wheezing sound, and the symptoms were relieved in 10 minutes after inhalation of salmeterol. Conclusion: Routine screening for lung function and FeNO and standardized perioperative treatment in patients with CRS before nasal endoscopy is useful.
