115The investigators proposed that the Cleanoze® is superior to the traditional nasal saline irrigation in term of the ease of use which will resulting in a better quality of life of the participants. This study will compared the efficacy, adverse reactions, complications and ease of use of Cleanoze® comparing with normal saline solution
Cleanoze® consists of a powder made up of Sodium chloride and Sodium Bicarbonate. This powder when dissolved in 250 ml of water is closely resembles the content of a body fluid which normally baths the outside of the cells of the body. This fluid is isotonic solution.
The nasal saline irrigation is the common procedure for upper respiratory tract infection patients including chronic rhinitis. The physician usually order the normal saline with appropriate medication e.g. anti-histamines, nasal steroids and anti-biotics to treat this condition.

Study Population: Any patients with chronic rhinitis (e.g. allergic rhinitis, vasomotor rhinitis) will be randomized to receive the study or control medication. The investigators will include the children 5 years and above which able to doing the lavage under the parents assistant or by them self.
Study Design: Phase III randomized controlled trial
Sample Size: Estimate from pilot study, the 71 patients per arm was estimated (142 participants totally).
Study Duration:
Duration of enrollment is 1 year.
The patients will be followed up to 1 months depend on the disease conditions.
The data analysis will take 3 additional months
The full report will complete after the data analysis within 3 months
The total of 1 year and 6 months period needed for this study.
Primary Objective: To compare the satisfaction of the patients using Cleanoze® versus conventional device
Secondary Objective(s):
The adherence to Cleanoze® device
The durability of the Cleanoze® device
The patient symptom score (VAS)
The SNOT-22 questionaire for evaluating the quality of life of the patients

Nasal irrigation using 250 ml normal saline pushing into the nostril by 20 ml syringe
Cleanoze® consists of a powder made up of Sodium chloride and Sodium Bicarbonate. This powder when dissolved in 250 ml of water is closely resembles the content of a body fluid which normally baths the outside of the cells of the body. This fluid is isotonic solution. The patient will be instructed to use this isotonic solution for nasal irrigation daily.
Nasal irrigation using sterile 0.9% NaCl 250 ml by 20 ml syringe The patient will be instructed to use this isotonic solution for nasal irrigation daily.
