A prospective randomized study was undertaken to compare the qualities of calcium sodium alginate (Kaltostat), trousered paraffin gauze, and glove finger packs as nasal packing material following the operation of partial inferior turbinectomy. All three types of packing material were found to be similarly effective in preventing bleeding whilst the packs were in situ. Calcium sodium alginate (Kaltostat) was associated with significantly less bleeding on pack removal than the other two packing materials. Further, irrespective of the material used, leaving the packs in situ for 48 hours produced significantly less bleeding than when they were removed after 24 hours. |
