Objective: The frontal sinus remains a challenging site for irrigation due to its position relative to the nostril and ethmoid sinus. This study aims to summarize the necessary factors for efficient irrigation of the frontal sinus after endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS) among patients with chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS).
Methods: Using Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA) guidelines, a systematic literature review was conducted on PubMed, Scopus, and Cochrane databases to identify studies assessing the effect of frontal sinus irrigation in patients with CRS, cadaver models, or 3D-printed models of the sinonasal cavity after ESS.

Purpose: To evaluate the efficacy of COMORAL a new multi-channeled oral irrigation (MCOI) unit with pulsating water jet, in plaque score reduction and gingivitis.
Methods: This was a single-blinded clinical randomized controlled trial (NCT05031260). Forty-two healthy subjects between 18 to 35 years old were initially recruited, and the control group (n = 20) and the intervention group (n = 17) were randomly assigned.

The primary prevention of periodontitis is controlling gingivitis daily. The study objective was to compare the efficacy of a pulsating water flosser to a pulsating water flosser infused with air microbubbles on clinical signs of inflammation and plaque. One hundred and five participants were enrolled in this single-blind, single-center, parallel, four-week, IRB/IEC-approved clinical trial.

The aim of the study is to test the developed perfusion machine for long-term preservation of the liver, to evaluate the perfusion scheme that provides two different (arterial and venous) flows, and to evaluate hemodynamic of parallel perfusion of the liver together with the kidney. We have developed a perfusion machine to enable simultaneous perfusion of the liver and kidney, based on clinically proven constant flow blood pump. In the developed device, constant blood flow is converted into pulsed blood flow using a device of its own design - a pulsator.
