Sinusitis is a common complication of nasotracheal intubation (NTI), especially with prolonged use. Early recognition and management, including tube removal and tracheostomy, are crucial for patient recovery.

Area of Science:

  • Otolaryngology
  • Infectious Diseases
  • Critical Care Medicine

Context:

  • Nasotracheal intubation (NTI) is a common procedure in critical care.
  • Sinusitis is an under-recognized complication associated with NTI.
  • Pathogenesis involves nasal mucosa edema and irritation from the intubation tube.

Purpose:

  • To highlight sinusitis as a complication of NTI.
  • To discuss the pathogenesis, frequency, and risk factors of NTI-associated sinusitis.
  • To provide recommendations for the management of NTI-associated sinusitis.

Summary:

  • Sinusitis following NTI is often caused by Gram-negative microorganisms.
  • Short-term NTI (<5 days) has a 0.3% sinusitis rate, while long-term NTI (>5 days) has a 40.4% rate.

  • In neurosurgical patients, sinusitis rates range from 52% to 100%.

    • Impact:

    • Emphasizes the importance of considering sinusitis in patients with NTI, especially prolonged NTI.
    • Suggests careful consideration of prolonged NTI versus orotracheal intubation or early tracheostomy in adults.
    • Recommends prompt investigation for sinusitis if fever or sepsis develops in NTI patients.
    • Advocates for tube removal, tracheostomy, and potentially surgical drainage for established sinusitis.
