b'We\\u2019ve recently rolled out a new epistaxis treatment protocol here at MCHD. Join the podcast team as we discuss some nosebleed background information along with the classic and emerging treatment options. Did somebody say TXA?? Yep, we have TXA and this is a perfect opportunity introduce the MCHD epistaxis/TXA treatment protocol. It\\u2019s simple, cheap and minimally invasive. With rapidly accumulating evidence that we will improve patient centered outcomes using this treatment, this is an episode that you don\\u2019t want to miss. \\n\\nREFERENCES:\\n1.\\tKlepfish A, Berrebi A, Schattner A.
