Validation of the combined olfactory test

Clinical Otolaryngology, 1996
A new test of olfactory function, the combined olfactory test, has been designed to assess odours easily recognizable by the test population. The test consists of an odour recognition test of nine odours, where an odour in a bottle is chosen from a list of four possible odours in a forced choice manner.

OLAF: standardization of international olfactory tests

European Archives of Oto-Rhino-Laryngology, 2011
Developed in the 1990 s, the "Sniffin 'Sticks" test for the assessment of olfactory threshold, odor identification and discrimination has become a widely used tool both in clinical and research settings. Originally pencil-and-paper documented, it may now be applied using a computer program.

The Leicester semi-automated olfactory threshold test--a psychophysical olfactory test for the 21st century

Rhinology journal, 2009
Develop a useful and cost-effective olfactometer for routine clinical use by providing a standardised threshold test for patients with olfactory disorders presenting in the ENT clinic.A prospective study of olfactory thresholds in 48 healthy volunteers on 2 consecutive occasions, undergoing quantitative testing with an olfactometer.

Application of the European Test of Olfactory Capabilities in patients with olfactory impairment

European Archives of Oto-Rhino-Laryngology, 2015
A central issue in olfaction concerns the characterization of loss of olfactory function: partial (hyposmia) or total (anosmia). This paper reports the application in a clinical setting of the European Test of Olfactory Capabilities (ETOC), combining odor detection and identification. The study included three phases. In phase 1, anosmics, hyposmics and

Sniffin'Sticks: a New Olfactory Test Battery

Acta Oto-Laryngologica, 2000
The olfactory test battery "Sniffin'Sticks" comprises a perception threshold test, an odour discrimination test and an odour identification test. The purpose of this study was to examine the suitability of the Sniffin'Sticks for use in everyday practice and to obtain (at least provisional) normal values.

Clinical validation of a new olfactory test

European Archives of Oto-Rhino-Laryngology, 1998
A new approach to clinical olfactometry is presented using nasal sprays. A special dosage valve was used to standardize an aerosol size to 40 microns. For evaluation a 6 x 6 matrix (substance/olfactory quality) with verbal associative clues was used according to test psychological findings.

Trends in Olfactory Threshold Test Results and Limits of Olfactory Testing in Patients with Parosmia

ORL
Introduction: Parosmia poses a clinical challenge due to a lack of established testing methods, leading to underestimated self-reported symptoms. This study investigated olfactory threshold trends, aiming to highlight parosmia prevalence, analyze threshold patterns, and assess diagnostic potential in current olfactory testing.

Comparison of clinical tests of olfactory function

European Archives of Oto-Rhino-Laryngology, 2015
To assess olfactory function, various measures are used in clinical routine. In this study, the Sniff Magnitude Test (SMT), a test considering the sniff response to an odor, was applied to patients with olfactory dysfunction (n = 49) and to a control group without subjective olfaction disorder (n = 21).
