title: A valuable device in the management of epistaxis.
abstract: A suction end for use in epistaxis is presented. It has advantages over commonly used devices in offering a comfortable length for handling and adequate diameter for effective control of severe haemorrhage. It is also disposable which reduces the risk of blood borne transmission of diseases.
