Management of Epistaxis in Children and Adolescents: Avoiding a Chaotic Approach
Pediatr Clin North Am.
2018 Jun.
Abstract
This article provides an organized foundation that facilitates the management of acute epistaxis and an understanding of features that merit further diagnostic workup. Prompt management, including measures such as holding pressure and using nasal packing, takes precedence over comprehensive diagnostic workup. Severe, recurrent, and posteriorly based bleeds should prompt consideration of alternate interventions and expert consultation.
Keywords: Epistaxis; Juvenile Nasopharyngeal Angiofibroma (JNA); Nasal packing; Nosebleed; Transnasal endoscopic sphenopalatine artery ligation.
