Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

3NT flexible endoscope is a single-use disposable handheld endoscope that provides a means to visualize the nasal cavity and paranasal sinus space and deliver irrigation to treat the sinus ostia and spaces within the paranasal sinus cavities for diagnostic and therapeutic procedures.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The rationale behind this feasibility study is to show that accessing and visualization of the nasal anatomy and paranasal sinuses (Maxillary, Frontal and Sphenoid sinuses) in patients suffering from symptoms attributable to sinusitis is feasible; This is an essential step in the development of a system that will later allow visualization, sampling, and treatment of the sinuses via the natural sinus ostium during the patient's first office visit in a minimally invasive manner while enabling treatment by lavage, and minimizing radiation exposure, antibiotic use, multiple office visits, and cost.
