[Activation of damaged nasal mucociliary function in children].
In 25 children with damaged mucociliary function of the nasal mucosa the authors used local ATP treatment. It was found that ATP solution applied to the nasal mucosa improves mucociliary function and reduces the transport time to normal; in acute, relapsing and allergic rhinosinusitis, in Kartagener's syndrome it improves partially the function of cilia, while transport remains prolonged. It seems that local application of ATP in drops may have a favourable effect on rhinosinusitis and prevent relapses.
