NASAL PACKING: The Rubber Pneumatic Pack

Archives of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, 1951
An improved model of the rubber pneumatic nasal pack previously described1has been developed after 15 yr. of experience with nasal packing methods. The earlier model of the nasal pack (Fig. 1) was unavailable during World War II owing to the rubber shortage, and the present change was felt advisable when production was resumed.

Nasal Packing After Surgery

JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1982
To the Editor.— Thomas et al reported a case of toxic shock syndrome (TSS) thought to have been a result of nasal packing after submucous resection and rhinoplasty (1982;247:2402). Bacteremia and local infections with nasal packing are familiar and long-recognized problems to many nasal surgeons.

Histopathological changes of nasal mucosa after nasal packing with Merocel

The Journal of Laryngology & Otology, 2021
AbstractObjectiveTo determine histopathological changes in nasal mucosa associated with duration of nasal packing with Merocel tampons.MethodsThis study included 24 healthy rabbits, 6 rabbits per group. In group A, no tampon was applied. In group B, Merocel nasal tampons were applied and removed after 24 hours.

Nasal packing after routine nasal surgery—is it justified?

The Journal of Laryngology & Otology, 1993
AbstractNinety-five patients undergoing routine nasal surgery were enrolled into a randomized, prospective trial to investigate the efficacy and morbidity of nasal packing. The patients were randomized to receive a bismuth iodoform paraffin paste (BIPP) pack, a Telfa pack or no pack.

Advances in Absorbable Biomaterials and Nasal Packing

Otolaryngologic Clinics of North America, 2009
Absorbable biomaterials are commonly used after endoscopic sinus surgery, both for hemostatic and wound healing considerations. Although removable nasal packing is the traditional method of controlling ongoing bleeding and modulating wound healing, it is uncomfortable for patients and associated with several complications.

An absorbent, non‐adherent nasal pack

The Laryngoscope, 1975
AbstractA modification of an absorbent, non‐adherent material (Telfa) is described for use as an anterior nasal packing. The ideal nasal packing should fulfill certain criteria. It should be easy to introduce and remove, contour to the nasal cavity to exert a tamponade effect, and should not prolapse or react unfavorably with the mucous membranes of ...

Nasal Packing After Septoplasty

JAMA Otolaryngology–Head & Neck Surgery, 2014
Bilateral anterior nasal packing is used after septoplasty with the goals of decreasing the risk of postoperative bleeding and adhesions. However, multiple studies caution against the use of nasal packing because of the risk of cardiopulmonary complications.To evaluate the cardiopulmonary risks associated with bilateral anterior nasal packing after ...

Advances in Absorbable Biomaterials and Nasal Packing

Otolaryngologic Clinics of North America, 2017
Nasal biomaterials have been developed to improve postoperative outcomes after functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS). These products have been designed to overcome certain common complications in FESS, and to maximize patient comfort. This article evaluates the performance of nonabsorbable and absorbable packing with respect to these outcomes. The

Episodic nocturnal hypoxia and nasal packs

Clinical Otolaryngology, 1991
Nasal obstruction influences respiration during sleep and nasal packs may cause obstructive sleep apnoea. In order to investigate this, the perioperative oxygen saturation was monitored for 3 nights with continuous pulse oximetry in 12 patients, who had bilateral nasal packs after septoplasty.
