Abstract:

OBJECTIVE

To analyze and summarize data on terminology, etiology, diagnostic criteria for acute sinusitis.

DATA SOURCES

Publications (articles and related abstracts) submitted to the PubMed database. The choice of material was carried out, according to the keywords: cold, acute viral sinusitis, acute bacterial sinusitis, post-viral sinusitis, acute respiratory viral infection, diagnosis of acute sinusitis.

RESULTS

The published research results indicate the existence of certain disagreements regarding the terminology, diagnostic criteria, indications for diagnostic studies in acute sinusitis. The data on the etiology, pathogenesis, and diagnostic features of acute sinusitis are presented in the current guidelines, reviews and publications of the results of clinical trials.

Keywords:

colds
acute viral sinusitis
acute bacterial sinusitis
post-viral sinusitis
acute respiratory viral infection
diagnosis of acute sinusitis
