Dr. Karen Parker Davidson, RN, is a globally recognized Airway Clinical Nurse Specialist recognized for her pioneering contributions to nasal function. As one of only two experts worldwide to advance 4-phase rhinomanometry, she introduced nasal resistance as a fifth vital sign and biomarker in clinical care. Her innovative work spans sleep medicine, surgery, orthodontics, and dentistry, focusing on using objective nasal measurements to guide treatment, monitor progress, and ensure long-term stability.
Dr. Davidson has developed groundbreaking tools and methods such as the Davidson Maneuver for assessing the external nasal valve, the FACT Method , the MAVERICK Nasal Exam , and the DAFNE Score. She also founded Airway AI, a platform leveraging advanced technology to analyze nasal flow limitations and their connection to conditions like PTSD, bruxism, posture-related issues, and airway resistance changes linked to oral devices and tongue instability.
With over three decades of experience in advanced practice nursing and the medical device industry, Dr. Davidson has held roles in critical care, oncology, infusion therapy, and as a U.S. Air Force flight nurse. Currently, she serves as Vice President of GM Instruments, Ltd., leads FACT Healthcare Consulting Group, and is the CEO and Founder of MedTec Research, Inc. Her expertise has driven collaborations with numerous medical companies and acade
