ObjectiveAlthough hemostatic gelatin sponge is a gelatin-based packing material with a powerful hemostatic effect, there were no studies in regard to its efficacy for packing material after septoplasty. The purpose of this study was to investigate the efficacy of hemostatic gelatin sponge nasal packing on patient's subjective symptoms, hemostasis, and wound healing following septoplasty.Subjects and methodsSeventy six adult patients with nasal septum deviation requiring septoplasty were included. Following surgery, one nasal cavity was packed with hemostatic gelatin sponge and the other one with polyvinyl acetate. Patients' subjective symptoms while the packing was in situ, hemostatic properties, patients' pain on removal, degree of bleeding on removal of the packing, time for hemostasis after removal, postoperative wound healing, and the cost of the pack were evaluated.ResultsBoth packs were equally effective in the control of postoperative bleeding following septoplasty. However, hemostatic gelatin sponge packing was significantly more comfortable while in situ and less painful on removal of the pack. The polyvinyl acetate packing was associated with significantly more bleeding on removal, therefore much time was needed to control hemorrhage. There was no significant difference in the cost of the pack used and outcome of wound healing.ConclusionThe use of hemostatic gelatin sponge after septoplasty results in significantly less discomfort and greater patient satisfaction with no adverse reactions when compared with polyvinyl acetate packing. Therefore, hemostatic gelatin sponge may be a useful packing material after septoplasty.
