[Hemostasis in the nose with bipolar suction and a coagulation probe under endoscopic control].
To stop nasal bleeding we use a manually operated combined bipolar suction and coagulation instrument under microscopic or endoscopic control, managed by one hand. As a result of the simultaneous suctioning of blood, the bleeding source can be coagulated even during the most effussive bleeding. Since the instrument is a combination of suction tube and bipolar coagulation sound, it can perform three functions at the same time: inspection of the source of bleeding, sucking off the blood, and coagulation. This does away with the need of nasal tamponade which most patients find highly disagreable.
