Measurement of nasal mucociliary clearance. [PDF]

open access: yesArchives of Disease in Childhood, 1989
The saccharin test was carried out in a randomly selected sample of schoolchildren (142 boys and 153 girls, age range 11-14 years) to determine the variability and reproducibility of the test and to assess whether it could be used as a screening test for nasal mucociliary clearance.

Nasal mucociliary clearance in health and disease [PDF]

open access: yesIndian Journal of Otolaryngology and Head and Neck Surgery, 2006
"Standard saccharine test is used to detect nasal mucociliary clearance time in healthy individuals both adults and children. The length of the nose was measured radiologically and with the help of a soft malleable rubber catheter. For healthy individuals, mean nasal mucociliary clearance lime is 8.2 minutes in children and 9.5 minutes in adults.

The relationship between the nasal cycle and mucociliary clearance [PDF]

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, 1992
AbstractNasal airway resistances were measured bilaterally on subjects at 30‐minute intervals over 6 hours using anterior rhinomanometry. The first 10 subjects found to exhibit alternating congestion and decongestion of the nasal mucosa (i.e., the nasal cycle) were included in the study.

Nasal mucociliary clearance in patients with tracheostomy

open access: yesIndian Journal of Otolaryngology and Head and Neck Surgery, 2003
Nasal mucociliary clearance (NMC) time was estimated in 30 tracheostomized patients (24 males & 6 females) in the age group of 13-55 years which was 7.04±0.38 minutes: The patients suffering from nose and paranasal sinus disorders; taking drugs like bromhexine; undergoing radiotherapy and smokers were excluded from the study.
