Effect of Olfactory Training on Restoring Smell and Taste Senses Post Covid-19 Infection [PDF]

Alexandria Scientific Nursing Journal, 2022
Background: COVID-19 patients frequently report smell and taste impairments that develop early in the disease and, in some cases, last long after respiratory symptoms have subsided. Olfactory training is a therapy that helps people restore their sense of

The effect of olfactory training on olfactory bulb volumes in patients with idiopathic olfactory loss

Rhinology journal, 2020
Olfactory loss impacts around 20% of the population and is associated with the reduction of pleasure from eating and drinking, sex and depression (1). Encouragingly, research findings have consistently demonstrated that olfactory training (OT) can improve olfactory function in people with olfactory loss due to various aetiologies (2). The most commonly

A multicenter real‐life study to determine the efficacy of corticosteroids and olfactory training in improving persistent COVID‐19‐related olfactory dysfunction

Laryngoscope Investigative Otolaryngology, 2023
Background No definitive treatment exists to effectively restore function in patients with persistent post‐infectious olfactory dysfunction (OD). Corticosteroids have been considered as a therapeutic option in post‐infectious OD but their benefit in ...

Olfactory Training for Postviral Olfactory Dysfunction: Systematic Review and Meta‐analysis [PDF]

Otolaryngology–Head and Neck Surgery, 2020
ObjectiveOlfactory dysfunction is a common problem that is most frequently attributed to upper respiratory infection. Postviral olfactory dysfunction (PVOD) can be prolonged and clinically challenging to treat. Olfactory training (OT) has demonstrated potential benefit for patients with nonspecific olfactory dysfunction.

Characterization, treatment modalities, and self-perceived improvement of post-COVID-19 phantosmia: a case series of eleven patients [PDF]

Rhinology Online, 2022
Background: Loss of smell and taste is one of the early and sensitive symptoms of COVID-19 that usually improves over time. Post-COVID-19 phantosmia, a smell distorted sensation without the presence of odorants, has deleterious and long-lasting effects ...

Postinfectious Olfactory Dysfunction: Oral Steroids and Olfactory Training versus Olfactory Training Alone: Is There any Benefit from Steroids? [PDF]

ORL, 2021
<b><i>Introduction:</i></b> There are limited treatment options for postinfectious olfactory dysfunction (PIOD). Olfactory training has recently been used in clinical practice, but no medical treatment is widely accepted. Although there is weak evidence for their value, some physicians use oral corticosteroids as first-line ...

Recovery of Olfactory Function Induces Neuroplasticity Effects in Patients with Smell Loss

Neural Plasticity, 2014
The plasticity of brain function, especially reorganization after stroke or sensory loss, has been investigated extensively. Based upon its special characteristics, the olfactory system allows the investigation of functional networks in patients with ...
