Abstract

Objectives: We evaluated nasal congestion occurring during pregnancy as measured objectively by anterior rhinomanometry. Patients and Methods: The study included 30 pregnant women and 30 healthy non-pregnant women as controls. Total nasal flow and total nasal resistance were evaluated by anterior rhinomanometry without decongestant. Results: Twelve pregnant women (40%) had nasal obstruction. Compared with the control group, total nasal flow and total nasal resistance were found to be statistically low (p<0.05) and high (p<0.01) in pregnant women, respectively. Significant differences existed in pregnant women with or without nasal obstruction with regard to total nasal flow and total nasal resistance (p<0.05). Conclusion: Nasal congestion may be objectively demonstrated by rhinomanometry in pregnant women.

Özet

Amaç: Bu çalışmada gebelikte ortaya çıkabilen nazal konjesyon objektif bir yöntem olan anterior rinomanometri ile değerlendirildi. Hastalar ve Yöntemler: Çalışmaya gebelik takibi yapılan 30 kadın ve kontrol grubu olarak sağlıklı, gebe olmayan 30 kadın alındı. Total nazal akım ve total nazal direnç değerlendirmeleri dekonjestansız anterior rinomanometri ile yapıldı. Bulgular: Otuz gebenin 12'sinde (%40) burun tıkanıklığı şikayeti vardı. Total nazal akım gebelerde kontrol grubuna göre düşük, total nazal direnç ise istatistiksel olarak yüksek bulundu (sırasıyla p<0.05 ve p<0.01). Burun tıkanıklığı olan ve olmayan olgular arasında, total nazal hava akımı ve nazal direnç yönünden istatistiksel olarak anlamlı fark bulundu (p<0.05). Sonuç: Hamile kadınlarda görülen nazal konjesyon, anterior rinomanometri ile objektif olarak ortaya konulabilir.
