The Breathe Right nasal strips are more and more commonly used, mainly by athletes, who hope to enhance their physical performance in competition and training. The effect of the device in such situations is uncertain and perhaps somewhat controversial. To investigate the effects of the nasal strips on nasal ventilation, 20 caucasian individuals were objectively assessed using anterior rhinomanometry and acoustic rhinometry. The results showed a significant increase in all subjects of transnasal airflow and in the average cross-sectional area of the nasal cavity that quantifies objectively the subjective impression of improved nasal breathing. In such patients where an improvement in nasal ventilation is desired, the use of the Breathe Right nasal strips seems to offer a beneficial treatment.
“畅呼吸”鼻贴的使用越来越普遍，主要是运动员在比赛和训练中使用，希望借此提高他们的身体表现。该产品在这种情况下的效果尚不确定，甚至可能存在一定争议。为了研究鼻贴对鼻腔通气的影响，研究人员使用前鼻测压法和鼻声反射法对20名白种人进行了客观评估。结果显示，所有受试者的经鼻气流均显著增加，鼻腔平均横截面积也有所增加，这客观地量化了鼻腔通气改善的主观感受。对于那些希望改善鼻腔通气的患者来说，使用“畅呼吸”鼻贴似乎是一种有益的治疗方法。
