Guidelines for the diagnosis and treatment of Epistaxis
Main Article Content
Abstract
Introduction: Epistaxis, or nasal bleeding, is a common condition that can range from mild, self-limiting episodes to severe cases requiring urgent medical intervention. Despite its frequency, epistaxis can present significant clinical challenges due to its wide range of underlying causes and the need for a systematic approach to management. This clinical practice guideline is designed to provide a comprehensive and evidence-based approach to the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of epistaxis. Its purpose is to assist healthcare professionals in making informed decisions, optimizing patient care, and improving clinical outcomes.
