Official title

Predictive Value of Nasal Dilator Strips for Evaluating Nasal Valve Obstruction as Measured by Post-Operative Rhinoplasty Outcomes

Brief summary

Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.

In this study, the study team will investigate the validity and role of nasal dilator strips (NDS), a novel method to determine the site of nasal valve compromise (NVC), in the pre-operative evaluation. The method involves placing the strip sequentially at the upper and lower lateral cartilage and recording the location of the optimal airway based on patient's subjective symptoms. Investigators seek to assess surgical outcomes in participants undergoing rhinoplasty based on pre-operative NDS classification. The Nasal Obstruction and Septoplasty Effectiveness (NOSE) instrument will be used to evaluate subjective symptoms of nasal obstruction, before and after the operation and comparing these scores.The results will help determine the effectiveness and predictive value of NDS in isolating the site of NVC.
