OBJECTIVE: In this study, we aimed to investigate the effects of the Ankaferd Blood Stopper (ABS) on nasal bleeding, pain, eating disorders, and sleeping problems in patients undergoing septoplasty.
METHODS: The prospective study included 100 patients who underwent septoplasty surgery. Patients were divided into two groups based on the chronological order of hospital admission: Group I was administered the ABS, and Group II was administered a standard Invotec Merocel nasal tampon. In both groups, the intensity of pain experienced by patients postoperatively during tampon use and tampon removal was assessed using the visual analogue scale (VAS).
RESULTS: A significant difference was found between the two groups with regard to VAS scores assessed during tampon use. In the ABS group, the VAS scores assessed during tampon use were significantly lower, and the incidence of nasal obstruction, eating disorders, dripping-type bleeding before tampon removal, and sleeping problems was significantly lower in the ABS group than in the Merocel group.
CONCLUSIONS: The ABS may be a viable alternative to other nasal packs, as it did not lead to a significant reduction in postoperative patient comfort during tampon use and caused a lower incidence of postoperative pain, eating disorders, sleeping problems, and nasal obstruction than standard Merocel tampons.
