Material and Methods: Observational, single-arm, retrospective studies consisting of a single online questionnaire were performed between July 2021 and December 2021. Eligible participants were adults who used the device or supervised use of the device in a participant under 18 years of age within 6 months of completing the questionnaire. Demographics, safety, and device performance were assessed. Results: Based on questionnaires submitted on OSW (n = 556), OSWAV (n = 555), Otrisal MDS (n = 555), and Prorhinel (n = 555), proportions of users who reported safety events were 1.8% for OSW, 2.3% for OSWAV, 1.4% for Otrisal MDS, and 2.0% for Prorhinel. Proportions of users who indicated they were satisfied or very satisfied with device performance ranged from 72.0% - 89.0% across all devices. Device performance for all products was also supported for additional preventative and symptomatic uses through exploratory analyses. Conclusions and Significance: These data confirm device safety and performance of OSW, OSWAV, Otrisal MDS, and Prorhinel for their intended uses. %K Saline Solution %K Sodium Chloride %K Common Cold %K Allergens %K Postmarketing Product Surveillance %U http://www.scirp.org/journal/PaperInformation.aspx?PaperID=129263
