Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Pain score on the Visual Analogue Scale
To evaluate whether patient´s self-administration of catheter into nasal cavity is associated with a different degree of patient-reported pain on Visual Analogue Scales (VAS) compared to when administered by a health professional.
Five seconds after placement of catheter in nasal cavity
Secondary Outcomes (1)
Sino-Nasal Outcome Test-22 (SNOT-22) questionnaire
Baseline, day 14
Other Outcomes (1)
Peak Nasal Inspiratory Flow (PNIF)
Baseline, day 14
Study Arms (2)
Group 1
EXPERIMENTALInsertion of catheter into nasal cavity carried out by patient. Fixation of catheter during treatment with patient´s hand.
Group 2
EXPERIMENTALInsertion of catheter into nasal cavity carried out by health professional. Fixation of catheter during treatment with helmet.

Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Patients with persistent (\>12w) symptoms of idiopathic rhinitis dominated by nasal congestion (± secretion) for an average of at least 1 h per day for at least 5 days during a period of 14 days
- Having nasal congestion as major symptom, and a nasal congestion score of at least 2 (scale 0-3)
- Male or female 18 - 65 years
- Judged by the Investigator as suitable for participation in the study without safety concerns based on medical history and physical examination
- Willing and able to provide written informed consent prior to participation in the clinical investigation
- Willing and able to comply with all study related procedure
You may not qualify if:
- Patients with Allergic rhinitis, demonstrated by either positive skin prick test, phadiatop or RAST(radioallergosorbent test)
- Patients with a history of nasal surgery like: septoplasty, cosmetic surgery, conchal surgery or any other nasal surgery except closed reposition for nasal fracture
- History of frequent nose bleeds or a condition that increases the risk of excessive bleeding
- Pronounced anterior septal deviation or other significant nasal pathology at endoscopic examination
- Current malignancy of any kind
- Known allergy to polyvinylchloride or medicinal liquid paraffin
- Any disease, condition (medical or surgical) which, in the opinion of the investigator, might compromise the study results, or would place the subject at increased risk
- Any implant with an electrical and/or neurostimulator device, including but not limited to cardiac pacemaker, defibrillator, vagal neurostimulator, deep brain stimulation, spinal stimulator, bone growth stimulator, or cochlear implant or any other implant in the head-, and neck region
- Previous treated with radiation on the face, head or neck regions
- Female patients who are pregnant or nursing, or become pregnant at any time from first visit at ENT(Ear, Nose and Throat) - clinic until treatment day (second visit)
- Female patients: unwilling to use adequate contraceptive between first and last visit
- Received study drug in a clinical trial for an investigational drug within the previous 30 days, or 5 half-lives, whichever is longer
