摘要: Background: Smell impairment affects 1% to 2% of Americans and leads frequent physician visits. Olfactory testing is available in chemosensory centers, but not as part a routine cranial nerve examination. The alcohol sniff test (AST), which uses the standard 70% isopropyl pad, was developed quick, reliable measure olfactory function. Methods: Sixty-four patients 36 healthy control subjects (N=100) were tested with AST butanol threshold test. Results: reliably, consistently, correctly measured Conclusion: rapid, that can be used for screening function should incorporated Arch Otolaryngol Head Neck Surg. 1997;123:591-594
