Chronic Mouth Breathing and SARS-CoV-2 Positivity in the Pediatric Population

NCT07063134 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 173

Last updated 2025-07-14

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Numerous non-scientific articles on the internet assert the significance of nasal breathing in protecting against COVID-19. Although nasal breathing is anticipated to result in a reduced intake of bioparticles when compared to mouth breathing due to the filtering mechanisms present in the nasal cavity, we have yet to identify any in vivo studies within the literature that definitively ascertain the correlation between mouth breathing and COVID-19 positivity. Consequently, this study aimed to investigate the impact of chronic mouth breathing on testing positive for COVID-19 in children.
