RhinoCath™ Nasal Catheter

· Controls intra and postoperative nasal bleeding with continuous suction.

· Reduces post surgical nausea

· Eliminates the need of post surgical packing in many cases

Patients undergoing nasal and sinus procedures report the highest degree of dissatisfaction of all surgical patients. The two primary reasons for this relate to post surgical nausea and the use of nasal packing.

Post surgical nausea is most frequently the result of blood and surgical fluids ingested by the patient during the procedure.

  Postoperative nausea causes vomiting, which raises blood pressure and increases the potential for postoperative bleeding. Nasal bleeding generally requires nasal packing.

RhinoCath Nasal Suction Catheter is placed in the posterior nasal cavity during the nasal and sinus procedure without obstructing the surgeon’s vision. Suction is applied by continuous suction or hand held devices. Suction continues until bleeding stops, making nasal packing unnecessary in most cases.
