Fluid mechanics approach to assess airflow dynamics during the respiratory cycle in a child nasal airway with adenoid hypertrophy

Puntos clave

• Airflow dynamics are significantly altered during the respiratory cycle in children with adenoid hypertrophy.
• Key evidence shows that the resistance in nasal airways increases, affecting breathing efficacy.
• Analysis employs fluid mechanics to evaluate airflow patterns in the nasal airway during different phases of respiration.
• Findings suggest the need for further studies on airflow dynamics in pediatric cases of adenoid hypertrophy.
