background: nasal continuous positive airway pressure (ncpap) is an effective method of ventilation in newborns with respiratory distress syndrome (rds). using an appropriate nasal skin care protocol is identical to prevention or reduction of nasal skin breakdown in those who receive ncpap. this study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of an evidence-based clinical care protocol on nasal sk...

IMPORTANCE The different nasal osteotomy patterns used to perform rhinoplasty are poorly described in the literature, and there is a continuous debate between surgeons on the ideal sequence and technique to obtain desired results. OBJECTIVES (1) To evaluate the necessity of a paramedian osteotomy when performing a high-low-high (HLH) osteotomy, (2) to study the fracture pattern of a high-low-...

 Place Duration Study: Eye department, Combined Military Hospital, Malir Cantt, Karachi, from Feb 2018 to Jun 2019.
 Methodology: A total 100 children were randomly divided into two groups. Each child both gro...

This tutorial outlines the details of the AOCMF image-based classification system for fractures of the midface at the precision level 3. The topography of the different midface regions (central midface-upper central midface, intermediate central midface, lower central midface-incorporating the naso-orbito-ethmoid region; lateral midface-zygoma and zygomatic arch, palate) is subdivided in much g...

Introduction A significant portion of patients treated in emergency departments have nasal fracture. It is important that the otolaryngologist know how to treat such damage. Objectives To evaluate the effectiveness of nasal fracture reduction under local anesthesia and tolerance to the procedure. Methods Twenty-four patients treated in the emergency department with closed reduction under local ...

Background. With the current lack of clinically relevant classification methods of septal deviation, computer-generated models are important, as septal cartilage is indistinguishable on current imaging methods, making preoperative planning difficult. Methods. Three-dimensional models of the septum were created from a CT scan, and incremental forces were applied. Results. Regardless of the force...
