Abstract: Objective To explore the effect of self-made metal rod and bipolar electrocoagulation in palate aorta hemostasis during nasal septum correction. Methods A total of sixty patients who underwent nasal septum orthopedic surgery in our hospital from May 2013 to August 2016 were randomly divided into two groups according to the order of admission. Group A(n=30)was treated with a round rod, which was used to punch the maxillary palatine artery. Group B(n=30)was treated with bipolar electrocoagulation to stop bleeding of the maxillary palatine artery. The amount of bleeding and hemostasis time of the two groups were compared. Results The hemostasis cost 1.93±0.94 min in group A and 5.96±1.62 min in group B, respectively. Group A had bleeding(25.5 amp 10.5)mL and group B had(72 amp 17.6)mL. No one had hematoma in group A and 3 had hematoma in group B. Conclusion The self-made metal rod for palate aorta hemostasis during nasal septum correction has advantages of less blood loss, less secondary hemorrhage of the posterior palate artery and high economy, and it is worthy of promotion in the clinic application.
