A Method of Control for Postoperative Adenoidal Bleeding

C. G. McNEILL M.D.1

1 Department of Anaesthesia, Vancouver General Hospital

A method is described of nasopharyngeal packing to control bleeding from the adenoidal site following adenotonsillectomy. The method involves the use of an endotracheal tube inserted in the nares, the cuff being inflated in the nasopharynx to provide pressure on the bleeding points. Three cases are reported in which this procedure was successfully employed.
