Abstract

Objective

To correlate the nasal anatomical characteristics of newborns with the dimensions of short binasal prongs.

Method

Observational, cross-sectional study carried out in two hospitals in southern Brazil. The authors evaluated 1620 newborns with neonatal data and nasal dimensions. To measure the dimensions of the nasal region, the authors considered the width of the medial columella, the right nostril diameter, and the left nostril diameter. These data were correlated with the dimensions of two models of short binasal prongs.

Results

Of the total newborns evaluated, 807 were female (49.8%), and 813 were male (50.2%). The majority were white (96.2%). The mean gestational age was 37.4 ± 2.9 weeks, ranging from 22 to 42 weeks. The birth weight was 2946.8 ± 699.3 g, ranging from 490.0 to 4740.0 g. Most of the nasal measures were significantly larger than both prong model measurements.

Conclusion

The sizes of short binasal prongs available on the Brazilian market do not match the nasal anatomical characteristics of newborns.

新生儿鼻腔解剖特征与短双鼻棱尺寸之间的相关性

方法在巴西南部的两家医院开展横断面观察研究。作者对 1620 名新生儿的新生儿数据和鼻腔尺寸进行了评估。为了测量鼻部的尺寸，作者考虑了内侧鼻翼的宽度、右鼻孔直径和左鼻孔直径。结果在所有接受评估的新生儿中，有 807 名女性（49.8%）和 813 名男性（50.2%）。大多数为白人（96.2%）。平均胎龄为 37.4 ± 2.9 周，从 22 周到 42 周不等。出生体重为 2946.8 ± 699.3 克，从 490.0 克到 4740.0 克不等。结论：巴西市场上销售的短双鼻锥的尺寸不符合新生儿的鼻腔解剖特征。
