intraoperative bleeding, lowers intraoperative blood loss
INTRAOPERATIVE BLEEDING
Local continuous suctioning at the level of the nasopharynx during adenoidectomy haemostasis (via suctioning tube) can be a costless and useful tool to promote immediate haemostasis, as it significantly shortens surgery and haemostasis time, lowers intraoperative blood loss, and reduces the need for electrocautery use in cases of persistent intraoperative bleeding.
