We cover the differences in how epistaxis presents for ENT and IR as well as how epistaxis presents in children and older patients. Dr. Agan tells us about the types of nosebleeds that are common and the general treatment algorithm she follows. We discuss nasal packing and decongestant sprays for treatment and how to know when to take the patient to the OR. Dr. Agan talks about isolating the bleeding spot, how to use a foley for posterior nosebleeds, and SPA litigation. We discuss why ENT might consult IR for an embolization. Dr. Dhand tells us about the contraindications for embolization and the procedure for treating the epistaxis. We review the materials that should be used and why it is important to look out for artery connections and pseudoaneurysms. We discuss the pearls and pitfalls of ENT and IR treatment of epistaxis and how to avoid the risk of stroke.
