The functional state of the nasal mucosa in patients was assessed by the time of MTS using visual (methylene blue) indicators according to the method of S.Z. Piskunov et al. 75 patients with various pathologies and brain injuries in serious condition were examined.

This alarms us to take preventive measures to prevent nosocomial sinusitis from the first day after hospitalization of the patient
