Résumé

The main objective was to perform an image-guided (CT) assessment of the efficacy of the CAVI-T™ balloon to compress the sphenopalatine artery (SPA) on cadaver heads, for the management of epistaxis. The secondary objectives were to analyse the deployment and stability of this balloon according to the volume injected into the nasal cavity, to optimise its use.
