5908: Characterizing the Upper Airway Manifestations in Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia and Primary Immunodeficiencies

Summary

A collaboration between pulmonologists, immunologists, and otolaryngologists at four sites, this project is designed to comprehensively define and compare the clinical manifestations and morbidity of upper airway involvement in primary ciliary dyskinesia and primary immunodeficiencies. The main objective of this project is to collect critical data to inform the design of future clinical trials that treat upper airway disease in these conditions. This one-visit study will include a comprehensive medical history, targeted ENT physical, nasal endoscopy, mucus sample collection, nasal nitric oxide, smell identification testing, audiology assessment and a sinus CT.
