Abstract | Eye and hearing tests are performed during health examinations for schoolchildren in Japan, but olfaction tests are not performed. If olfaction tests were performed in schoolchildren, diseases of the nose would be easier to identify. The pocket smell test (PST) was performed in 5th-grade elementary schoolchildren (n=68). Healthy schoolchildren were diagnosed as having normal olfaction by the PST, but the mint and paint thinner test odors often produced incorrect answers. Since the PST was made in the United States, all of the test odors may not be familiar to some Japanese children. The PST scores were not significantly different between subjects with or without nasal diseases. While the PST is applicable as an olfaction screening test in schoolchildren, it is not sensitive enough to identify nasal diseases. |

聴覚, 視覚と異なり, 嗅覚は通常学校健診で検査されないが, 検査すれば嗅覚異常や鼻副鼻腔疾患発見に寄与するかもしれない。そこで二つの小学校の5年生の児童 (各32名と36名) にポケットスメルテスト (pocket smell test : PST) を用いて嗅覚検査を行った。健診で健常と診断された児童のポケットスメルテストスコアは3点満点で2.9±0.4および2.8±0.3であり学校間に有意差は認められなかった。このことから, ポケットスメルテストは, 少なくとも小学校5年生には実施可能と思われた。検査臭に対する誤答では, ペンキ (シンナー) 臭を間違える者が多かった。調査した全児童において健診結果と比較したところ鼻副鼻腔疾患および扁桃肥大の有無では有意差を認めず, 上気道疾患スクリーニング用には不向きで, 嗅覚スクリーニングに適していると思われた。 Eye and hearing tests are performed during health examinations for schoolchildren in Japan, but olfaction tests are not performed.
