Stepwise Empty Nose Syndrome Evaluation (SENSE) test—A modified cotton test for reduced bias in office diagnosis of empty nose syndrome
The SENSE test offers further insight into subtleties of nasal breathing experienced by ENS patients. The placebo effect can be prominent and important to consider with individual patients. While most ENS patients prefer any intranasal cotton placement over baseline, blinded testing reveals these patients can accurately discriminate minimal changes in nasal aerodynamics.
