---|---|---|
Shorook Na'ara et al | 2020 | Change in the paediatric sleep questionairre was noted as primar outcome, which improved to a greater extent in the intevention group (+ 0.31 points) than contorl group (+ 0.22 points) with a P-value of 0.009. Adenoid size was 3.12 in the intervention arm and 3.2 in the control arm (P:0.6) |
Secaattin Gu ̈ls et al | 2019 | There was significant difference in the pain socre between two groups at first (P: < 0.002) and second post-operative days (P: < 0.003) |
Saroo Singh et al | 2019 | The mean recovery time in the intervention group was 36Â h with SD of 12.205, while it was 33.60 with SD of 11.95 in the contorl group with a P-value of 0.445. Postopertaive pain was higher significantly in control group than intervention arm |
Juneja et al | 2018 | There was a higher post-opertaive pain score in the control group (6.20: 3 to 8) when compared with 4.24 (2 to 8) in the intervention group (P < 0.05) |
Mularczyk et al | 2018 | Mean duration of pain was higher in the intervention (2.05 ± 1.12) than control group (1.53 ± 1.03), however, there was no statistically significant difference in the pain between two groups after controlling for adenoid size ((P:0.87) |
Hussein and Al-Juboori | 2012 | No additional outcome was reported |
Baker et al | 2012 | The mean number of handbacks per surgery was 1.9 and this average was 0.4 in the intervention group than control group (3.4) with a P-value of < 0.0001 |
Öztürket al | 2012 | Parents graded nasal airway obstruction on a visual analogue scale (VAS) ranging from 0 to 10. The VAS score improved among those who underwent curretage as well as power-asssisted endoscopic adenoidectomy. VAS score in the control arm improved from 8.63 to 2.22 after 6 months and it improved from 8.69 to 2.08 in the intervention arm. There was no statistically significant difference in the VAS between two groups (P:0.46). There was a significant reduction in the adenoid size in the intervention than control arm (P < 0.0001) 7.5% of the patients had laryngospasm and delayed anesthetical recovery. No recurrences were found in both groups at the follow-up |
Bradoo et al | 2011 | No complications such as velopharyngeal insufficiency or post-opertaive bleeding were observed in either of the groups |
Songu et al | 2010 | No significant difference was found in symptoms between two groups (P = 0.422). Symptoms were resolved in 61% of the petients in control group and 70% in the intervention group. Around 90% of the patients’s symptoms were resolved or improved in both groups |
Datta et al | 2009 | The mean pain score was 2.63 (1.64–3.63) in control group whereas intervention group’s mean score was 2.13 (1.19 to 3.06) with no statistically significant difference. The mean recovery period in intervention group was 2.93 days and it was slightly prolonged (3.5 days) in the control group (P < 0.05) |
Al-Mazrou et al | 2009 | 28.5% of the pateints were founds to have injury of adjacent structures in the control arm versus 11.5% had injured structures in the control arm |
Jonas et al | 2007 | Mean size of the adenoids was 1.5 ± 0.75 in the intervention group and 1.9 ± 0.82 in the control group at 6 months |
Shapiro et al | 2007 | There was no statisitcally significnat difference in the pain scores between two groups after surgery (P:0.296) and no difference in the use of narcotic pain medication between two groups (P:0.982). Patients were returned to normal diets on similar post-opertaive days (P:0.982) and caregivers returned to normal routine on similar post-operative days (P:0.631) |
Tarantino et al | 2004 | Complete cicatrization (complete absence of pseudomembrane) was met by 92% of the patients in intervention gropu versus 45.3% of the patients in the control group (P < 0.0001) |
Stanislaw et al | 2000 | Intervnetion was 20% quicker and had 27% less blood loss than currete and provided better control for depth of resection with complete resection. Surgeons were greately satisfied with intervention than currete (P < 0.001). There was no difference in the recovery period or satisfaction of parents |
Clemens et al | 1997 | No postopertaive complications were recorded in either of the groups |
