Education and Training in Hemostasis: Perspectives of the Early Practitioner and Expert Practitioner.
Hemorrhagic emergencies in otolaryngology can present significant challenges to the early practitioner. The development of procedural skills, clinical decision making, effective communication strategies, and leadership remain critical to ensuring positive patient outcomes. Procedural task trainers and simulation-based complex scenarios provide safe and effective learning environments for young practitioners to build confidence and develop such skills. This article reviews the principles of managing epistaxis and postoperative neck hematoma geared toward early learners by providing a road map for educators to use in simulation-based curriculums.
