Patient‐reported disease control versus overall symptom severity as global metrics of chronic rhinosinusitis disease status
Patients conceptually view patient-reported CRS control as a more global measure that subsumes OSS. Quantitatively, however, OSS is highly correlated with patient-reported CRS control, possibly reflecting their redundancy. For ease of use, we recommend patient-reported CRS control be reflected by OSS <4 for controlled, 4 ≤ OSS < 7 for partly controlled, and OSS ≥7 for uncontrolled CRS.
