Advances in absorbable hemostatic materials for nasal bleeding and post-sinus surgery.

Nasal bleeding, especially following nasal or sinus surgery, significantly impacts patient recovery. Traditional hemostatic methods no longer meet the clinical needs of patients. With the advancement of treatment options for nasal bleeding, absorbable hemostatic materials, known for their excellent biocompatibility and degradability, have garnered widespread attention in the field of nasal hemostasis. This article aims to review the recent progress in research on hemostatic materials for nasal bleeding and post-operative nasal surgery. It analyzes the mechanisms of action of various types of hemostatic materials, including collagen-based, cellulose-based, alginate-based, and platelet-rich plasma (PRP) materials, discussing their clinical applications, advantages, and limitations. Finally, the article explores the future direction of nasal hemostatic materials, particularly the innovative development of bioactive absorbable materials and their potential applications in nasal bleeding. Overall, with the continuous emergence of novel materials, nasal hemostatic materials are expected to play an increasingly vital role in improving therapeutic outcomes, reducing recurrence, and enhancing the quality of life for patients.
