Suctioning the Nasopharyngeal Airway01:29

Suctioning the Nasopharyngeal Airway

488
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.

Nose and Nasal Cavity01:24

Nose and Nasal Cavity

2.8K
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...

Epistaxis01:30

Epistaxis

184
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...

Administering Oxygen by Nasal Cannula01:29

Administering Oxygen by Nasal Cannula

663
Oxygen therapy is critical to patient care, especially for those struggling with respiratory issues. This intervention increases the oxygen concentration in the lungs, enhancing the amount of oxygen transported to the body's tissues. One standard method of delivering supplemental oxygen is through a nasal cannula, a non-invasive device that provides low to medium oxygen concentrations.
Nasal Cannulas
A nasal cannula is a lightweight tube split into two prongs placed in the nostrils,...

Area of Science:

  • Otolaryngology
  • Rhinology
  • Surgical Innovation

Background:

  • Nasal obstruction is a prevalent condition frequently managed with functional nasal surgery.
  • Office-based procedures are gaining traction due to reduced recovery times, lower costs, and avoidance of general anesthesia.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review patient selection criteria for office-based functional nasal surgery.
  • To discuss procedures suitable for an in-office setting.
  • To evaluate the outcomes of current in-office functional nasal surgery techniques.

Main Methods:

  • A comprehensive literature search was conducted using PubMed, Scopus, and Google Scholar.
  • Articles focusing on in-office functional nasal surgery techniques and outcomes were identified and reviewed.

Main Results:

  • The review covers patient selection, office setup, and procedural aspects of in-office functional nasal surgery.
  • Procedures address internal and external nasal valves, nasal septum, and inferior turbinates.
  • Various techniques can be safely and effectively performed in an outpatient setting.

Conclusions:

  • A broad spectrum of functional nasal surgeries can be safely and effectively performed in an office setting.
  • In-office procedures provide a viable alternative to traditional operating rooms for nasal obstruction treatment.
