GUZMAN-VALDERRABANO, Carlos et al. Measurement of nasal nitric oxide: recommendations and procedure. Neumol. cir. torax [online]. 2020, vol.79, n.1, pp.53-58.  Epub 27-Sep-2021. ISSN 0028-3746.

The measurement of nasal nitric oxide (nNO) has been a very useful tool for the diagnosis of primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD). Compared with healthy subjects or affected by others respiratory diseases, PCD patients show low concentrations of nNO. nNO is a simple test that requires minimal cooperation from the subject. The aim of this document is to review technical aspects for calibration, preparation and measurement of nNO.

Palabras llave : Nitric oxide; nasal nitric oxide; primary ciliary dyskinesia.
