Description
Summary:Aim: The study intents to compare the hemostatic and hemodynamic effects of topical application versus intranasal injection of adrenaline during endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS) under general anesthesia (GA). Materials and Methods: This is a tertiary hospital-based, 1-year prospective observational study in fifty adults, within the age group of 18-70 years of both sexes with bilateral similar sinonasal pathology, who underwent ESS under GA. Intraoperative hemostatic and hemodynamic parameters following topical application and intranasal injection of adrenaline were analyzed. Results: It was found that Fromme-Boezaart grading for hemostasis did not show any statistically significant difference (P > 0.05) between topical versus injection adrenaline. Out of fifty patients, 74% showed
