Sinonasal Outcome Test-22

The SNOT-22 is a 22-item disease-specific quality-of-life questionnaire designed to assess sino-nasal symptoms and their functional impact on patients with chronic rhinosinusitis, nasal polyposis, and allied conditions. Developed by Hopkins and colleagues at King's College London in 2009, it has become the most widely used instrument for measuring sino-nasal disease burden in clinical trials and rhinological practice. The SNOT-22 provides rapid, patient-centered assessment of both nasal-specific symptoms (congestion, drainage, sneezing) and general health impacts (sleep, headache, concentration).
