[The electroencephalographic aspects in stress epistaxis].
The nasal haemorrhage is a symptom whose significance is seldom completely investigated. In this paper we present the results that we have obtained in two groups of patients: a pediatric population who presented for repeated episodes of nasal haemorrhage and a group of first trimester pregnant women who also have noticed the appearance of this symptom. Beside the clinical examination, a paraclinical assessment has been performed, which included a laboratory profile (hematology and biochemistry) and electroencephalography (EEG), in which we found significant changes. We conclude that EEG is a valuable investigation technique for diagnosis and monitoring purposes in nasal hemorrhage. Also, the clinical management of the stress-related nasal hemorrhage must address multiple issues for becoming efficient.
