Suctioning the Nasopharyngeal Airway01:29

Suctioning the Nasopharyngeal Airway

3.9K
Nasopharyngeal suctioning is a procedure to remove secretions from the upper part of the respiratory tract that the patient cannot clear independently. It helps maintain airway patency and prevents complications such as aspiration pneumonia.

Epistaxis01:30

Epistaxis

626
Epistaxis, or nosebleeds, occurs when small, swollen blood vessels in the nasal mucous membrane rupture. Typically, the anterior septum is the primary site of occurrence.
Etiology
Possible causes of this condition include high blood pressure, trauma, low humidity, upper respiratory tract infections, allergies, foreign bodies, nasal inhalation of corticosteroids or illicit drugs, excessive use of decongestant nasal sprays, facial or nasal surgery, anatomic malformation, tumors, or systemic...

Nose and Nasal Cavity01:24

Nose and Nasal Cavity

12.8K
The nose is composed of an observable exterior segment (external nose) and an internal segment within the skull known as the nasal cavity (internal nose). The external nose, visible on the face, consists of a framework of bone and hyaline cartilage enveloped in skin and muscle and lined with a mucous membrane. This structure is supported by the frontal bone, nasal bones, and maxillary bone and is supplemented by a cartilaginous framework comprising the septal nasal cartilage, lateral nasal...

Chronic Pharyngitis01:23

Chronic Pharyngitis

12.9K
Chronic pharyngitis refers to persistent inflammation of the pharyngial mucosa.
Etiology
It often arises from persistent viral or bacterial infections affecting sinuses and tonsils.
Additional contributing factors include inadequate dental hygiene, mouth breathing, recurring tonsillitis, allergic rhinitis, laryngopharyngeal reflux, and exposure to smoke, chemicals, and other environmental pollutants. Allergic reactions to pollen, mold, and pet dander, chronic cough, excessive voice usage,...

    Area of Science:

    • Otolaryngology
    • Surgical Innovation

    Background:

    • Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) often requires medical management.
    • When medical therapy fails, surgical intervention becomes necessary.
    • Nasal obstruction is a common symptom impacting quality of life.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To review the role of surgery in managing chronic rhinosinusitis.
    • To highlight functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS) as a primary surgical approach.
    • To discuss adjunctive nasal surgeries and rare open techniques.

    Main Methods:

    • Review of surgical techniques for CRS.
    • Discussion of functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS).
    • Consideration of septoplasty and inferior turbinate surgery.

    Main Results:

    • Surgery is an effective addition to medical regimens for CRS.
    • FESS is a common procedure for refractory sinonasal disease.
    • Nasal surgeries can alleviate obstruction and facilitate sinus surgery.

    Conclusions:

    • Surgical options are vital for refractory chronic rhinosinusitis.
    • A combination of procedures may be required for optimal outcomes.
    • Careful patient selection and technique are crucial for success.
