[Pre-hospital diagnosis of nosebleed in children].
Early signs of haemorrhages develop in the childhood, nose bleeding being predominant. Recurrent nose bleeding was observed in 130 (89.0%) patients with thrombocytopathies, 37 patients with nasal pathologies, 13 out of 14 children having willebrand's disease, 3 patients suffering from Rendu-Osler disease, in a boy with a factor XIII deficiency, and in a girl with psoriasis. In the case of haemorrhagic diathesis, nose bleeding was, as a rule, combined with haemorrhages of other types (skin, gum, uterine, etc.) whereas in the case of ENT pathology, nose bleeding was the only haemorrhagic symptom. Medical examinations of patients suffering from recurrent nasal haemorrhages at the prehospital stage should include: study of the history case, ENT-doctor examination, and blood analysis using standard tests (micro-coagulation, prothrombin, hemolysate-aggregation). The battery of blood tests can be performed without costly equipment or reagents. It became routine in the work of a regular polyclinical laboratory and helped identify the causes of nose hemorrhages in 94.6% children.
