The objective of this study is to evaluate the pressure dynamics in the sinonasal cavity associated with the use of a straw.<\/jats:p><jats:p>\n          Methods\u2003Intracranial pressure catheters were placed in the nasal cavity of 20 healthy individuals. Pressure measurements were then recorded while participants drank liquids of different viscosities from a cup and from a straw. Measurements were recorded with and without subjects occluding their nose to simulate postoperative nasal obstruction.<\/jats:p><jats:p>\n          Results\u2003The average pressure in the nasal cavity while drinking water from a cup was \u22120.86\u2009cmH2O, from a straw was \u22121.09\u2009cmH2O, and while occluding the nose and using a straw was \u22120.81\u2009cmH2O. The average pressure in the nasal cavity while drinking a milkshake from a cup was \u22120.98\u2009cmH2O, from a straw was \u22121.88\u2009cmH2O, and while occluding the nose and using a straw was \u22121.37\u2009cmH2O.

The pressure generated when drinking from a straw is not significantly different from that of drinking from a cup. This data suggest that straw use may be safe for patients following endoscopic skull base surgery, but further investigation is warranted.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1055\/s-0040-1714095","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,8,5]],"date-time":"2020-08-05T23:04:07Z","timestamp":1596668647000},"page":"432-436","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["Straws
