A working definition of septoplasty with or without inferior turbinate reduction and the scope of pertinent otolaryngologic practice were first established. Patients 18 years and older were defined as the targeted population of interest. A modified Delphi method was then used to distill expert opinion into clinical statements that met a standardized definition of consensus.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>The group defined nasal septoplasty as a surgical procedure designed to correct a deviated nasal septum for the purpose of improving nasal function, form, or both. After 2 iterative Delphi method surveys, 20 statements met the standardized definition of consensus, while 13 statements did not. The clinical statements were grouped into 8 categories for presentation and discussion: (1) definition and diagnosis, (2) imaging studies, (3) medical management prior to septoplasty, (4) perioperative management, (5) surgical considerations, (6) adjuvant procedures, (7) postoperative care, and (8) outcomes.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title><jats:p>This clinical consensus statement was developed by and for otolaryngologists and is intended to promote appropriate and, when possible, evidence\u2010based care for patients undergoing septoplasty with or without inferior turbinate reduction. A complete definition of septoplasty with or without inferior turbinate reduction was first developed, and additional statements were subsequently produced and evaluated addressing diagnosis, medical management prior to septoplasty, and surgical considerations, as well as the appropriate role of perioperative, postoperative, and adjuvant procedures, in addition to outcomes. Additionally, a series of clinical statements were developed, such as \u201cComputed tomography scan may not accurately demonstrate the degree of septal deviation,\u201d \u201cSeptoplasty can assist delivery of intranasal medications to the nasal cavity,\u201d \u201cEndoscopy can be used to improve visualization of posterior\u2010based septal deviation during septoplasty,\u201d and \u201cQuilting sutures can obviate the need for nasal packing after septoplasty.\u201d It is anticipated that the application of these principles will result in decreased variations in the care of septoplasty patients and an increase in the quality of care.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1177\/0194599815606435","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2015,11,2]],"date-time":"2015-11-02T14:07:48Z","timestamp":1446473268000},"page":"708-720","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":69,"title":["Clinical Consensus Statement"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"153","author":[{"given":"Joseph K.","family":"Han","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Eastern Virginia Medical School Norfolk Virginia USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Scott P.","family":"Stringer","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"University of Mississippi Medical Center Jackson Mississippi USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Richard M.","family":"Rosenfeld","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"SUNY Downstate Medical Center Brooklyn New York USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Sanford M.","family":"Archer","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"University of Kentucky Lexington Kentucky USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Dole P.","family":"Baker","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Anderson ENT &amp; Facial Plastics Anderson South Carolina USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Seth M.","family":"Brown","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"University of Connecticut Farmington Connecticut USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"David R.","family":"Edelstein","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Manhattan Eye Ear and Throat Hospital and New York Head and Neck Institute New York New York USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Stacey T.","family":"Gray","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Massachusetts Eye and Ear Infirmary Boston Massachusetts USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Timothy S.","family":"Lian","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Louisiana State University Shreveport Louisiana USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Erin J.","family":"Ross","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Beachwood Family Health Center Beachwood Ohio USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Allen M.","family":"Seiden","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"University of Cincinnati Cincinnati Ohio USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Michael","family":"Setzen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"New York University School of Medicine Great Neck New York USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Travis T.","family":"Tollefson","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"University of California Davis Medical Center Sacramento California USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"P.
