Description:
Smell and taste loss are among early signs of COVID-19 disease. The frequency of such disorders varies according to literature. Furthermore, objectification of such disorders isn?t performed in the majority of studies. We created a self-administered smell test at our department (Odourized Markers Test). Considering taste, no test is available in self-administration modality. There is advantage of self-administration technique especially in infectious patients. To develop such a method of taste examination, modification of Taste strips test seems to be ideal.
