Inhalation and deposition of spherical and pollen particles after middle turbinate resection in a human nasal cavity [PDF]
Respiratory Physiology & Neurobiology Volume 294, December 2021,
103769, 2021 Middle turbinate resection significantly alters the anatomy and redistributes the inhaled air. The superior half of the main nasal cavity is opened up, increasing accessibility to the region. This is expected to increase inhalation dosimetry to the region during exposure to airborne particles.

Investigation on the nasal airflow characteristics of anterior nasal cavity stenosis
Brazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 2016 We used a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) model to study the inspiratory airflow profiles of patients with anterior nasal cavity stenosis who underwent curative surgery, by comparing pre- and postoperative airflow characteristics. Twenty patients with

International Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, Volume 13, Issue 1, Page 31-41, January 2023., 2023 Abstract Background Sinus surgery removes inflamed tissue, restores airflow, and improves delivery of medication into surgically opened spaces. The exhalation delivery system with fluticasone (EDS‐FLU; XHANCE®) uses a novel delivery system to create closed‐palate, positive‐pressure, bidirectional mechanics that significantly alter the deposition of the

Nasal Flow Simulation Using Heat and Humidity Models
Journal of Biomechanical Science and Engineering, 2010 The nasal cavity performs several important functions for the inhaled air, such as temperature and humidity adjustments. Although it is necessary to obtain velocity, temperature, and humidity distributions during inhalation in order to understand the ...
