Pain Assessment Using a Visual Analog Scale (VAS) Primary · Post-operative Day 1

The severity of post-operative pain following the use of the BiZact™ device in adult (≥22 years of age in United States and ≥18 years of age in Europe) tonsillectomy procedures will be analyzed at each post-operative assessment: at days 1 through 7, 10 and 14. This pain score will be assessed quantitatively using the VAS scale and qualitatively using the below subgroups: * No Pain: VAS= 0 * Mild Pain: VAS \> 0 and \< 4 * Moderate: VAS ≥ 4 and \< 7 * Severe: VAS ≥ 7

Time to Normal Diet Following the Use of the BiZact™ Device in Adult (≥22 Years of Age in United States and ≥18 Years of Age in Europe) Tonsillectomy Procedures Secondary · Post-operative Day 28

Ability to return to Normal, subject's baseline, diet. EORTC Quality of Life Questionnaire (EORTC QLQ -H\&N35) will be analyzed at each post-operative assessment: at days 1 through 7, 10 and 14. The module consists of 35 questions assessing symptoms and side effects of treatment, social function, and body image/sexuality. The head and neck cancer module incorporates seven multi-item scales that assess pain, swallowing, senses (taste and smell), speech, social eating, social contact, and sexuality. There are also eleven single items. For all items and scales, high scores indicate more problems.
