Sonotubometry
Abstract: To determine whether intra-individual changes in eustachian tube (ET) function induced by local application of a histamine phosphate solution can be detected using an improved sonotubometer. Design: The function of the ET was measured with a revised sonotubometer before and after histamine was applied to the nasopharyngeal ostium of the ET.

“…However, investigators have continued to question the accuracy of sonotubometry for assigning ET openings/non-openings during a swallow or other maneuver based on theoretical considerations [4,16,11,17,18], and recommended various modifications to the core sonotubometry protocol intended to reduce false test results [16,18–20,14,21–25,11]. To date, there is no “accepted” protocol (configuration) for ET function testing using sonotubometry and no study has compared the accuracy of these different protocols for discriminating “true” ET openings.…”
