It often arises from the nasal mucosa due to its rich vascular supply, primarily in the anterior and posterior parts of the nasal cavity. Types of Epistaxis : 1) Anterior Epistaxis: Originates from the anterior nasal septum, particularly the Kiesselbach's plexus (Little's area). Most common and usually less severe. 2) Posterior Epistaxis:Originates from the posterior nasal cavity or nasopharynx, often involving branches of the sphenopalatine artery. Less common but more severe and challenging to control. Etiology : Local Causes: Trauma (nose picking, facial injury) Dry air or nasal mucosa drying Foreign body insertion Nasal infections (rhinitis, sinusitis) Allergies Nasal tumors or polyps Systemic Causes: Hypertension Coagulopathies (e.g., hemophilia, platelet disorders) Use of anticoagulants (e.g., aspirin, warfarin) Liver disease affecting coagulation Environmental Factors: Dry climates, high altitudes, or winter season Exposure to chemical irritants or smoke Pathophysiology : Vascular Fragility: The nasal mucosa contains a dense network of blood vessels that can easily rupture due to minor trauma or inflammation. Increased Bleeding Tendency: Conditions that impair clotting mechanisms or increase blood pressure can lead to persistent or recurrent bleeding episodes. Clinical Features : Symptoms: Bleeding from one or both nostrils Blood dripping into the throat if posterior (may cause coughing or vomiting of blood) May be associated with nasal obstruction or a sensation of fullness in the nose. Signs of Severe Epistaxis: Persistent or recurrent bleeding Signs of hypovolemia (dizziness, fainting, pallor, rapid pulse) Diagnosis : Clinical Examination: Visual inspection with nasal speculum and light to identify the bleeding site. Assessment of Severity: Check blood pressure, heart rate, and signs of hypovolemia. Laboratory Tests: Complete blood count (CBC), coagulation profile, and blood grouping in severe cases. Management : Initial First Aid: Sit the patient upright, leaning forward slightly to prevent blood from entering the throat. Pinch the soft part of the nose for 10-15 minutes. Apply a cold compress to the bridge of the nose or the back of the neck to reduce blood flow. Medical Management: Topical Vasoconstrictors: e.g., oxymetazoline, to constrict blood vessels and reduce bleeding. Cauterization: Chemical (silver nitrate) or electrical cautery for visible bleeding points. Nasal Packing: Anterior or posterior nasal packing with gauze, nasal sponges, or balloon catheters. Surgical Management: Ligation or Embolization: Of offending vessels, especially for severe posterior bleeds. Systemic Treatments: Control of underlying conditions (e.g., hypertension, anticoagulant reversal). Complications Recurrent Bleeding: Due to inadequate treatment or failure to address the underlying cause. Hypovolemia/Shock: From severe or uncontrolled bleeding. Infection: Secondary to nasal packing. #fmgeians #fmgevideos #rapidrevisionfmge #mbbslectures #nationalexitexam #nationalexittest #neetpg #usmlepreparation #usmlestep1 #fmge #usmle #drgbhanuprakash #medicalstudents #medicalstudent #medicalcollege #usmleprep #usmlevideos #usmlestep1videos #medicalstudents #neetpgvideos #Epistaxis #Nosebleed #ENTLecture #ENTEducation #MBBSNotes #ENTDoctors #MedStudentLife #MedicalEducation #NEETPGPrep #USMLEPrep #FMGEPrep #ENTSpecialist #NosebleedManagement #NosebleedCauses #ENTAwareness #ENTExam #StudyNotes #DoctorLife #EarNoseThroat #MedicalStudents #MedSchool #NasalCare #HealthTips #EmergencyCare #ENTTreatment #NosebleedFirstAid #NoseCare #ENTClinic #MedicalKnowledge #ClinicalPractice
