There has been limited success using topical drug delivery to the nose and the paranasal cavities\/sinuses, in part because most nasally administered aerosol drug formulations are efficiently filtered at the nasal valve and fail to reach the osteomeatal area and sinuses.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Study Design<\/jats:title><jats:p>Feasibility study.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Setting<\/jats:title><jats:p>Nuclear medicine department.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Subjects and Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>Pulsating airflows were applied to the nasal cavity and sinus ventilation was studied in five healthy human volunteers using dynamic <jats:sup>81m<\/jats:sup>Kr\u2010gas gamma camera imaging.

No drug was deposited into the sinuses using nasal pump sprays, but up to 6.5 percent of the nasally administered drug was deposited into the sinuses using pulsating airflow. Clearance kinetics of the drug was reduced after pulsating aerosol delivery compared to nasal pump sprays. Residence time of the drug at the site of deposition was up to three\u2010fold longer with pulsating aerosol delivery than with nasal pump sprays.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title><jats:p>Our data support the hypothesis that topical drug delivery in relevant quantities to the nose and osteomeatal areas, including the paranasal sinuses, is possible using pulsating airflows.
