Assessment of nasal patency by the recording of nasal symptom scores was compared with an objective method of determining nasal airway area using a fiberoptic rhinoscope. Sixty patients with active allergic rhinitis and nasal congestion requiring treatment were studied. Nasal symptoms were recorded and nasal airway area was measured before and at fixed time intervals after administration of either pseudoephedrine or oxymetazoline. Both methods detected a decongestant response to both drugs, and the symptom of congestion correlated with the measured nasal airway area. Rhinoscopic measurement of cross sectional nasal airway area is an objective method that may be used to complement other methods for evaluation of nasal patency.
通过记录鼻部症状评分来评估鼻通畅度，并与使用纤维鼻咽喉镜测定鼻气道面积的客观方法进行比较。对60名患有活动性过敏性鼻炎且需要治疗的鼻塞患者进行了研究。记录鼻部症状，并在给予伪麻黄碱或羟甲唑啉之前及之后的固定时间间隔测量鼻气道面积。两种方法均检测到两种药物的减充血反应，并且鼻塞症状与测量的鼻气道面积相关。鼻气道面积的鼻咽喉镜横截面测量是一种客观方法，可用于补充评估鼻通畅度的其他方法。
