Use of olfactory training in post-traumatic and postinfectious olfactory dysfunction.
OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS There is evidence that the olfactory system can be modulated by repeated exposure to odors, a procedure called olfactory training. The aim of this study was to assess the effectiveness of olfactory training in patients with postinfectious and post-traumatic olfactory dysfunction. STUDY DESIGN Prospective study of 119 patients with postinfectious and post-traumatic olfact...
متن کاملModified olfactory training in patients with postinfectious olfactory loss.
OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS Patients with olfactory dysfunction benefit from repeated exposure to odors, so-called olfactory training (OT). This does not mean occasional smelling but the structured sniffing of a defined set of odors, twice daily, for a period of 4 months or longer. In this prospective study, we investigated whether the effect of OT might increase through the use of more odors and ext...

متن کاملPrognostic value of olfactory bulb volume measurement for recovery in postinfectious and posttraumatic olfactory loss.
OBJECTIVES Several prognostic factors influencing the recovery from olfactory dysfunction have been described. The aim of this study was to investigate whether olfactory bulb volume could be used as a new predictor of olfactory recovery in postinfectious and posttraumatic olfactory loss. STUDY DESIGN Cohort study; Level of evidence, 4. Setting Tertiary university clinic, department of otolary...
