Background: Diagnostic test preferences and management strategies for nasal airway obstruction (NAO) may vary depending on medical specialty.Objective: To discern current attitudes and practices of different medical specialties regarding diagnostic and management strategies for patients with NAO.Methods: Cross-sectional survey of all practicing otolaryngologists and medical allergists in Wisconsin and parts of northern Illinois (N = 268). Survey participants were asked to rank the tests they most commonly perform to differentiate causes of NAO and to rank the diagnostic tests they believed were most sensitive and specific (criterion standard) for NAO.

Nasal endoscopy was the most common diagnostic test for otolaryngologists vs allergists (58% vs 2%, P
