The practical application of tridimensional representation (3D printout) of actual geometry of nasal cavity to establish the deposition of inGKS was proven. Droplet size and the geometry of the aerosol cloud introduced into the nostril determine the significant deposition of medication droplets in the anterior part of the nasal cavity. Both physical properties of the drug as well as spraying system applied influence spatial distribution of the drug. The interaction of the air flow with the layer of deposited fluid plays a major role in the deposition of the drug in the nasal cavity, therefore it is so important that the drug does not drain by gravity but remains at the site of deposition which may be reinforced by thixotropic properties of the preparation.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
