Abstract:
OBJECTIVE To investigate the disparation of hemorrhage between the coblation and traditional adenotonsillectomy in children, and find the coping strategies. METHODS The children who had performed the coblation adenotonsillectomy in Tianjin childrens hospital between Jan. 1, 2014 and Dec. 31, 2014 were selected for the coblation group. The children who have performed traditional adenotonsillectomy in Tianjin childrens hospital between Jan. 1, 2010 and Dec. 31, 2010 were selected for the traditional group. The total rate of hemorrhage, the rate of primary hemorrhage, the rate of secondary hemorrhage, the site of bleeding, the degree of bleeding and the management methods of the two groups were compared. RESULTS There were no statistically significant differences in the total rate of hemorrhage, the site and the degree of bleeding, and management methods between the two groups. The rate of primary bleeding in the coblation group was lower than that in traditional group, however the rate of secondary bleeding in the coblation group was higher than that in traditional group. CONCLUSION The coblation assisted adenotonsillectomy does not increase the postoperative bleeding rate in children.
