The role of unilateral nasal inspiratory peak flow in nasal obstruction‐ a study of seventy patients undergoing septorhinoplasty surgery

Abstract

Nasal Inspiratory Peak Flow (NIPF) poorly correlates with subjective patient reported outcomes (PROMs) following functional septorhinoplasty.

The aim of this study is to determine whether unilateral NIPF correlates with PROMs.

The study demonstrates significant improvement in objective and subjective measurements post septorhinoplasty surgery in seventy patients.

There was weak correlation between improvements in bilateral NIPF when compared with changes in the NOSE score.

Whilst unilateral NIPF does not correlate with subjective outcome scores, it is still a useful measure in assessing nasal patency and in patient education.
