Abstract

Objective: To explore the clinical effect of intranasal corticosteroids combined with nasal irrigation in the treatment of allergic rhinitis. Method: 100 patients with allergic rhinitis who received treatment in Shaanxi Provincial People’s Hospital from January 2020 to January 2021 were selected as the research subjects. The grouping method adopts a random approach, dividing 100 patients into two groups with 50 patients in each group. They are the control group and the experimental group, respectively. The control group patients were treated with conventional intranasal corticosteroids therapy. The experimental group patients were treated with intranasal corticosteroids combined with nasal irrigation. Two groups of patients are required to undergo treatment and follow-up for 3 and 6 months to compare their quality of life and nasal symptoms after receiving treatment. Result: The quality of life of the experimental group patients was significantly higher than that of the control group. The difference was significant (P<0.05); The nasal symptoms of the experimental group patients were significantly reduced compared to the control group patients, with a significant difference (P<0.05). Conclusion: The combination of intranasal corticosteroids and nasal irrigation can effectively improve the quality of life and nasal symptoms of patients with allergic rhinitis.
