Changes at Mean Platelet Volume and Platelet Distribution Width Levels After Septoplasty and Its Correlation With Epworth Sleepness Scale.

Objective: Nasal septum deviation may affect cardiopulmonary system. Those effects can be determined via blood tests and Epworth sleepness scale (ESS). In this study, it was aimed to measure mean platelet volume (MPV) and platelet distribution width (PDW) in patients with nasal septum deviation and to assess changes at their levels after septoplasty. Furthermore, it was purposed to document the correlation between ESS score and MPV, PDW levels. Methods: Eighty-one patients who underwent septoplasty and 50 healthy controls composed the study group. Epworth sleepness scale was performed to all patients preoperatively and patients were divided into 2 groups in terms of ESS scores. Mean platelet volume and PDW levels were measured preoperatively and it was repeated postoperatively. Results: In Group A (ESS 0.05), PDW reduced from 14.56 +/- 1.27% to 14.43 +/- 1.03% after surgery (P >0.05). On the other hand, in Group B (ESS >=10), MPV reduced from 9.54 +/- 0.68 fl to 8.87 +/- 0.44 fl (P
