Correlation of the Objective and Subjective Measures of the Nasal Obstruction Before and After Surgery of the Nasal Septum

Completed
Conditions
Nasal Obstruction
Registration Number
NCT03331107
Lead Sponsor
Fondation Hôpital Saint-Joseph
Brief Summary

Nasal obstruction is a very subjective sensation but it's also a frequent reason of consultation. Two specific questionnaire NOSE and RhinoQOL were validated; but rhinomanometry value is still a question to debate. As well as the difference between acoustic rhinometry and rhinomanometry.

Usually nasal obstruction due to a septal deviation is treated by septoplasty. If the anatomic result can be proved true, the patient's felt would be unsuccessful.

The aim of this study is to assess the impact of septoplasty on the nasal obstruction, objectively by rhinometry and subjectively by questionnaire.
