Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
Acute sinusitis is a very common entity that leads to a significant financial medical burden, as well as serious complications when treatment is inadequate. This article investigates the clinical criteria for making the diagnosis of acute sinusitis, the common causative pathogens, and the current treatment and referral guidelines. In addition, the most common complications are outlined, in order for clinicians to develop more familiarity with these conditions and improve recognition when they are present. |
