Efficacy and safety of normal saline instillation: A systematic review
Physiotherapy, 11/06/09

There is little evidence of benefit but also minimal evidence of safety risks. Controlled trials of better quality and more clinically relevant outcomes need to be performed before this technique is either accepted or rejected.
