Change From Baseline in Mean Average Score Using Pittsburgh Insomnia Rating Scale (PIRS) in Q1, Q3, Q17 and Q18 at Day 7
The PIRS questionnaire had 3 sections (Section A \[Q1 to Q12\], Section B \[Q13 to 16\] and Section C \[Q17 to Q20\]). The following questions were asked from Section A : 1. One or more awakenings after getting to sleep and 3 Sleep that does not fully refresh you, and Section C: 17 Your sleep quality compared to most people and 18 Your satisfaction with your sleep. Section A question were scored as follows: 0= Not at all bothered, 1= slightly bothered, 2=moderately bothered, and 3= severely bothered. Section B, Q13 and 14 were scored as follows 0= Less than ½ hour, 1= between ½ to 1 hour, 2= between 1 to 3 hours and 3=more than 3 hours or I didn't sleep; Q15 and 16 were scored as 0=more than 7 hours, 1= between 4 to 7 hours, 2= between 2 to 4 hours, and 3=Less than 2 hours or I didn't sleep.

Questions regarding nasal strips were asked to participants and scores were noted on daily basis. Participants were asked how stuffed their nose felt before and after strip application (Q2) and how breathing felt after strip was applied (Q4) at bedtime. For Q2 the participants scored their responses on a scale of 0 to 3 where 0=no symptoms, 1=mild symptoms, 2=moderate symptoms, 3=severe symptoms. For Q4, participants scored their responses on a scale of -5 to 5 where -5=much worse, 0=same, and 5=much better (Q4 was asked after strip application only therefore no data for before application is available for Q4.)

Participants scored all the domains of NRQLQ using same 7 points scale where 0=Not troubled and 6=extremely troubled. Sleep problems (difficulty getting sleep, unable to get a good night sleep or wake up during the night, restless \[tossing and turning\] and having to get up because stuffy nose or to blow nose using the score, scores range: Min-Max \[0-24\]), Sleep time problems (Nasal congestion or stuffy nose, sinus pressure or pain, runny nose, post-nasal drip \[drainage down back of nose/throat\], and headache, scores range: 0-30); Symptoms on waking in the morning (Feel tired and unrefreshed, nasal congestion or stuffy nose, congestion in sinuses, takes time to clear nighttime drainage after waking up, scores range:0-24); practical problems (have to avoid symptom triggers such as dust, cigarette smoke, strong smells and perfumes, need to rub nose or eyes, and have to take medication, scores range: 0-18).
