Rates of Antidepressant, Anxiolytic, and ADHD Medication Use Among Patients Undergoing ESS

Patients with chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) are estimated to have psychiatric comorbidity at a higher rate than the general population; however, self-report of depression diagnoses or symptoms often underestimates true prevalence in many populations. In the present study, a cohort of 2279 patients undergoing endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS) were matched to an equal number of non-CRS control subjects by age, sex, race and health status. Overall, the rate of antidepressant/anxiolytic utilization among ESS patients was 22.1%versus 11.3% for controls (P < .001, OR = 2.23, 95% CI 1.90-2.63). The rate of ADHD medication utilization among ESS patients was 3.6%versus 2.0% for controls (P = .001, OR = 1.85, 95% CI 1.28-2.68). This study suggests that patients undergoing ESS exhibit significantly higher rates of antidepressant and ADHD medication utilization relative to a matched control population.
