Description

Rhinomanometry is a simple and useful method for objective evaluation of nasal airway patency. However, there is a lack of published studies in pediatric patients. We aimed to evaluate nasal patency assessed by rhinomanometry and its variation after administration of an intranasal vasoconstrictor in children.
