  • Title: [Significance and results of rhinomanometry in allergologic diagnosis].
    Author: Fender G, Thebille J, Veltman G.
    Journal: Z Hautkr; 1982 Dec 01; 57(23):1722-30. PubMed ID: 7164531.
    Abstract:
    109 provocations with rhinomanogram were performed, 107 of them showed the following results: When there was a skin reaction of 2/5 according to Hansen, provocation and strength of intracutaneous test revealed a significant correlation. The most eminent win of information was achieved in 61% by challenge with housedust, whereas it was about 30% by challenge with mite or pollen. The most important indication for nasal challenge is the control of the clinical relevance of an allergen in view of a planned hyposensitization therapy. In particular, a nasal challenge should be performed prior to a hyposensitization with housedust and when the history of the patient and the results of intracutaneous tests are contradictory.
