[Effects of sodium chloride hypertensive solution on maxillary clearance in patients with acute purulent maxillary sinusitis].

Abstract

In addition to clinical picture of acute purulent maxillary inflammation (APMI), radionuclide tests data were examined to assess maxillary clearance by function of mucociliary system and forced nasal breathing in APMI patients treated with sodium chloride (crystalline and liquid) or furacin. Dry dispersion of sodium chloride and its 3% solution, furacin solution have no effect on clearance of the sinuses. Only a 6% concentration of sodium chloride hypertensive solution significantly improves the clearance in forced nasal breathing.
