Classification of Bacterial SinusitisClassification of Bacterial Sinusitis
• Acute bacterial sinusitisAcute bacterial sinusitis- infection lasting 4 - infection lasting 4 weeks, symptoms resolve completely (children weeks, symptoms resolve completely (children 30 days)30 days)
• Subacute bacterial sinusitisSubacute bacterial sinusitis- infection lasting - infection lasting between 4 to 12 weeks, yet resolves between 4 to 12 weeks, yet resolves completely (children 30-90 days)completely (children 30-90 days)
• Chronic sinusitisChronic sinusitis- symptoms lasting more than - symptoms lasting more than 12 weeks (children >90 days)12 weeks (children >90 days)
