title: [Physical and physiologic principles in the diagnosis of obstructed nasal respiration].
abstract: The assessment of the degree of intensity of obstructed nasal respiration has so far involved considerable errors in anamnesis and inspection, and hence an integration of objective rhinomanometry into a common diagnostic scheme has been impossible. This is by no means inevitable, since all three parameters are based on the same anatomical and physiological facts and on the same flow characteristics. These are shown in order to obtain correct diagnoses and objective possibilities of comparing our diagnostic and therapeutical efforts.
