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.
