NASAL BLEEDING, PRESSURE ULCER, PRESSURE INJURY, PRESSURE INJURY, COMPLICATIONS
Nasotracheal intubation (NTI) is frequently necessary during dental and oral maxillofacial surgeries, specifically during operations with operative field and airway converge. However, some complications associated with NTI such as nasal bleeding,The National Pressure Ulcer Advisory Panel, European Pressure Ulcer Advisory Panel, and Pan-Pacific Pressure Injury Alliance collectively published It is reported that the application of hydrocolloid dressing to the nasal alar is effective in preventing nasal pressure injury associated with NTI.Hoshijima et al state that the meta-analysis of nasal protection strategy suggests that the use of a nasal protection strategy considerably reduces the risk of a nasal pressure injury during NTI; however, the number of samples in the meta-analysis was too small for trial sequential analysis, thus further research is needed.
