Abstract in Portuguese
Objetivo: Caracterizar a geometria nasal de adultos com obstrução nasal (ON) decorrente de desvio septal (DS) e/ou hipertrofia de conchas (HC) pela análise de áreas seccionais e volumes de segmentos específicos da cavidade nasal por rinometria acústica. Modelo: Estudo prospectivo. Local de Execução: Laboratório de Fisiologia, HRAC-USP e Ambulatório de Otorrinolaringologia, Hospital Estadual Bauru. Participantes: Trinta pacientes com queixa de ON, de ambos os sexos, idade entre 18-40 anos, apresentando DS+HC (n=24), DS (n=5) ou HC (n=1) ao exame clínico. Variáveis: Foram avaliadas as áreas seccionais correspondentes às três primeiras deflexões do rinograma (AST1, AST2, AST3), suas respectivas distâncias em relação às narinas (dAST1, dAST2, dAST3) e os volumes nos segmentos correspondentes a 1,0-3,2cm (V1), 3,3-6,4cm (V2) e 7,0-12,0cm (V3), antes e após a descongestão nasal (DN), utilizando um Rinômetro Acústico Eccovision. Para fins de análise, calculou-se a soma dos valores das cavidades direita e esquerda. Resultados: Antes da DN, os valores médios (±DP) corresponderam a 0,83±0,23cm2(AST1), 1,66±0,52cm2(AST2), 2,36±0,77cm2(AST3), 2,19±0,20cm(dAST1), 4,01±0,33cm(dAST2), 5,85±0,37cm(dAST3), 2,77±0,51cm3(V1), 6,52±1,99cm3(V2), 26,00±9,62cm3(V3). Esses valores foram significantemente menores (p<0,05) que os definidos para adultos sem ON no mesmo laboratório. A DN causou aumentos proporcionalmente maiores de AST e V no grupo com ON, sugerindo a participação de componente funcional. Foram observados 12 casos com resultados normais, apesar da presença de DS e/ou HC. Conclusão: Os resultados obtidos demonstraram, na maioria dos pacientes analisados, significativo comprometimento da patência nasal associado à ON decorrente de alterações estruturais.

Abstract in English
Objective: To characterize the nasal geometry of adults with nasal obstruction due to septal deviation and/or turbinate hypertrophy by analyzing sectional areas and volumes of specific segments of the nasal cavity by means of acoustic rhinometry. Design: Prospective study. Setting: Laboratory of Physiology, HRAC-USP and Otorhinolaryngology Clinics, Hospital Estadual Bauru. Participants: Thirty patients with nasal obstruction complaints, of both sexes, aged 18 to 40 years, presenting septal deviation+turbinate hypertrophy (n=24), septal deviation only (n=5) or turbinate hypertrophy only (n=1) on clinical examination. Main Outcome Measures: Sectional areas measured at the three main deflections of the rhinogram (CSA1, CSA2, CSA3), their respective distances from the nostrils (dCSA1, dCSA2, dCSA3) and volumes at the 1.0-3.2cm (V1), 3.3-6.4cm (V2) and 7.0-12.0cm (V3) segments were evaluated, before and after nasal decongestion, by means of an Eccovision Acoustic Rhinometer. For analysis, the values from the right and left cavities were added. Results: Before nasal decongestion, mean values (±SD) obtained corresponded to 0.83±0.23cm2(CSA1), 1.66±0.52cm2(CSA2), 2.36±0.77cm2(CSA3), 2.19±0.20cm(dCSA1), 4.01±0.33cm(dCSA2), 5.85±0.37cm(dCSA3), 2.77±0.51cm3(V1), 6.52±1.99cm3(V2), 26.00±9.62cm3(V3). These values were significantly lower (p<0.05) than those set for adults without obstruction at the same laboratory. Decongestion caused CSA and V increases proportionally higher in the group with nasal obstruction, suggesting the involvement of a functional component. Twelve cases presented normal results, despite the presence of septal deviation and/or turbinate hypertrophy. Conclusion: The results showed, in most patients analyzed, significant impairment of nasal patency associated with nasal obstruction due to structural defects.
