Epistaxis is a clinical sign and not a disease, which is an extremely frequent reason for consultation in the emergency and primary care services, and can occur both in children and adults, with an incidence of bimodal distribution, mostly in children and young people, and in older adults (45-65 years). To solve this clinical picture, the use of nasal tamponade is used, which is a compulsory learning maneuver and is usually performed by the faculty of specialists.Patients with subsequent tamponade need to be kept under observation, since they may present respiratory distress. Patients who have been treated with this type of procedure should follow a series of recommendations that will help them improve their clinical picture. It is worth mentioning that so far in the 21st century there has been a significant expansion in alternatives for the management of epistaxis. While it is true, traditional nasal plugging techniques are still performed successfully, and with obvious patient satisfaction.
