There is a significant risk of blood contamination during the non-surgical management of epistaxis. Contamination beyond gloves happens in 55% of cases and the contamination risk to eyes as high as 18%. There is a lack of awareness and a majority of ENT doctors underestimate this risk. Protective barrier equipment and eye protection in particular are suboptimally available in all clinical areas where epistaxis is dealt with. Consequently, there is poor utilization of protective barrier equipment.
鼻出血的非手术治疗过程中存在显著的血液污染风险。55%的病例存在超出手套范围的污染,眼部污染风险高达18%。人们对此缺乏认识,大多数耳鼻喉科医生低估了这种风险。在所有处理鼻出血的临床区域,防护屏障设备,尤其是眼部防护设备的配备并不理想。因此,防护屏障设备的使用率很低。
