Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to validate the effectiveness of the modified olfactory training device, the main questions it aims to answer are: Is the modified olfactory training device effective in treating patients with post-viral olfactory dysfunction? Compared to the conventional device, how efficient is the modified olfactory training device for improving olfactory function?

Conditions

  • Olfactory Dysfunction
  • Post Viral Olfactory Dysfunction (PVOD)

Interventions

DEVICE

Conventional olfactory training device

Conventional olfactory training was designed by Hummel et al. They performed OT using four odors (phenyl ethyl alcohol, rose; eucalyptol, eucalyptus; citronella, lemon; and eugenol, cloves), which are representative of four odor categories on the odor prism proposed by Henning.

DEVICE

Modified olfactory training device

Participants will use a modified olfactory training device based on expiratory pressure. Its bidirectional airflow and unidirectional pressure characteristics significantly increased the deposition rate of olfactory odors in the olfactory cleft area, making the patient feel stronger in the nasal cavity during olfactory training.

DEVICE

Conventional olfactory training device with placebo

Based on the traditional olfactory training device, four olfactory odors are replaced by placebo。
