Total Nasal Symptom Score (TNSS)
Tidsramme: 4 weeks
|
TNSS evaluates symptoms of rhinorrhea, nasal congestion, nasal itching and sneezing on a 4-point scale.
The total score range is from 0 to 12, where 0 = no symptoms, 1 = mild symptom(s), 2 = moderate symptom (s), and 3 = severe symptom(s).
TNSS baseline value will be measured prior to the start of the experiment and then again during every visit.

The questionnaire has 7 domains; activity limitations, sleep disturbances, non-hay fever symptoms, practical problems, nasal symptoms, ocular symptoms and emotional problems.
Patients will be asked to recall their experiences during the previous week and to rate each question on a ranging from 0 (no impairment) to 6 (severe impairment).
RQLQ will be measured during visits 2, 6, 9, and 10.
