Assesment of Olfactory Disorders and Performance of a New Olfactory Test in Children With Congenital CMV

NCT02782988 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 106

Last updated 2021-07-27

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

CMV lesions were found in the olfactory system of children with congenital CMV infection but no study has hitherto examined the impact of congenital CMV infection on olfaction. So the investigators propose in this study to assess the proportion of children with olfactory deficits among children with congenital CMV infection. Second this study will also evaluate performances of a new olfactory test, based on discrimination of binary odorant mixtures.

Conditions

  • Congenital Cytomegalovirus Infection

Interventions

OTHER

olfactory tests, otoacoustic emissions (OAE)

Two series of olfactory tests will be performed : 1) the first one with simple odorants and 2) the second one with binary mixtures of odorants. These tests of nasal chemosensory performance are based on pen-like odor dispensing devices (Sniffin' Sticks, Burghardt, Wedel, Germany) and measure odor discrimination ability of young children in less than 15 min.
