Acoustic rhinometry: accuracy and ability to detect changes in passage area at different locations in the nasal cavity.
OBJECTIVES To evaluate the accuracy of acoustic rhinometry (AR) measurements, and to assess how well AR detects obstructions of various sizes at specific sites in the nasal cavity, we created a cast model from an adult cadaver nasal cavity. METHODS The actual cross-sectional areas of the cast model nasal passage were determined by computed tomography and compared with the corresponding areas ...
متن کاملAccuracy of acoustic rhinometry measurements.
OBJECTIVES To identify the factors that influence the accuracy of acoustic rhinometry measurements recorded with commercially available equipment. STUDY DESIGN A simple model was used which consisted of a metal pipe and cylindrical inserts. These inserts comprised various lengths, and aperture dimensions were comparable to, or smaller than, the nasal valve areas of both adults and children. ...
متن کاملAdult nasal volumes assessed by acoustic rhinometry.
UNLABELLED Acoustic rhinometry allows an objective and non-invasive assessment of nasal geometry. AIM The present study aimed at determining the volumes of specific segments of the nasal cavity in healthy adults including the nasopharynx, using acoustic rhinometry. STUDY DESIGN A clinical prospective analysis. CASES AND METHOD Thirty volunteers with no evidence of nasal obstruction, aged ...
متن کاملAzelastine and budesonide (nasal sprays): Effect of combination therapy monitored by acoustic rhinometry and clinical symptom score in the treatment of allergic rhinitis
The aim of this study was to objectively evaluate the effects of intranasal therapy with azelastine (AZE), budesonide (BUD), and combined AZE plus BUD (AZE/BUD) using a nasal provocation test (NPT) and acoustic rhinometry in patients with allergic rhinitis. A randomized, single-blind, crossover study with three treatment sequences was used. Thirty patients with persistent AR received the three ...
متن کاملAzelastine hydrochloride and budesonide (nasal sprays): effectiveness combination therapy monitored by acoustic rhinometry and clinical symptom score in the treatment of allergic rhinitis
Methods The study population consisted of 28 patients (9 female and 19 males, aged between 18-32 years) with diagnostic of persistent AR (ARIA consensus). This was a randomized, crossover study. Subjects were randomly assigned to receive either azelastine hydrochloride (140 mcg/nostril) or budesonide (64mcg/nostril) or both drugs. All patients received the three treatments using nasal spray twi...
