Dimensões nasofaríngeas em indivíduos sem anomalias craniofaciais: dados normativos

Abstract: RESUMO Objetivo Determinar os valores controles da área de secção transversa mínima nasofaríngea de indivíduos sem anomalias craniofaciais e em diferentes faixas etárias. Material e Método Participaram do estudo 96 indivíduos sem anomalias craniofaciais, de ambos os sexos, com índice de massa corpórea e circunferência cervical normais, subdivididos em 4 grupos etários: crianças com idade entre 6 e 10 anos (G1), adolescentes de 11 a 17 anos (G2), adultos jovens entre 18 e 39 anos (G3) e adultos de meia-idade … Show more

“…23 In accordance with the objective of the present study to specifically assess the nasal cavity and not the pharynx, it can be stated that the influence of BMI is not clinically relevant, as neither air resistance nor the size of the nasal cavity seems to be influenced by obesity. 30 Furthermore, previous studies 26,31 by our group showed that age and gender do not significantly influence the minimal cross-sectional area of the nasal cavity. Another factor that varied between study participants was gender.…”

“…However, normative data of the nasopharyngeal minimal cross-sectional area, measured by anterior modified rhinomanometry in individuals without CL/P, obtained in a study conducted in the same setting as the present, showed no difference between genders. 31 Considering these data, it seems unlikely that the statistically significant difference found between G1 (CL/P + OSA) and G2 (N-CL/P + OSA) for the upper segment of the nasopharynx in our study was influenced by gender. However, due to the reduced sample size, this bias effect should be considered when interpreting nasal dimensions results.…”

“…Fonte: Adaptada de Amorim 17 e Rollemberg et al 18 Algumas funções biológicas, como a fala e a respiração, são comprometimentos decorrentes das anomalias craniofaciais, especificamente as fissuras labiopalatais. Contudo, apesar de um primeiro reparo cirúrgico do palato e lábio, as alterações nasais são comuns, resultando na diminuição das dimensões da cavidade dessa estrutura, logo, aumentando de forma significativa o número de respiradores orais 20 . De acordo com estudos, cerca de 60% de pessoas com fissura labiopalatal possuem a via aérea nasal prejudicada e consequente respiração através da via bucal que, por conseguinte, influencia o funcionamento das vias aéreas inferiores e funções da mastigação e deglutição, além do próprio ato de falar 20 .…”

“…This technique is based on the principle that a constriction area may be estimated by simultaneous measurement of the differential pressure between the two sides of constriction and the airflow crossing it (5,24) . The nasopharyngeal area is measured during respiration at rest, positioning a catheter inside the oral cavity and another inside the nostril with smaller nasal flow, held in place by an obturator.…”

“…The area considered for analysis corresponds to the mean of these multiple measurements and is calculated by the equation: A= V/k (2ΔP/d)1/2, in which A= orifice area in cm 2 ; V= nasal flow in cm 3 /s; K= 0.65; ΔP= oral-nasal pressure in dynes/cm 2 ; d= air density (0.001g/cm 3 ) (12) . The value of 1.047cm 2 was considered as the limit or normality (24) .…”
