Overview

About 60 percent of people experienced epistaxis at least once, and about 6 percent of people looking for medical action at least once however, epistaxis is hardly lethal. It is more common in children and elderly patients

Epidemiology and demographics

The incidence of patients with epistaxis, which needed inpatients treatment to control bleeding was estimated to be 42 cases per 100,000 for men and 28 cases per 100,000 for women and For men over 85 years it's 222 per 100,000 in Thuringia, Germany.[1]

"About 1 in 200 visits in emergency departments, is for epistaxis In the United States".



Prevalence

About 60 percent of American people experienced epistaxis at least once, and about 6 percent of people looking for medical action. [2]

Case-fatality rate/Mortality rate

Although epistaxis is the most common emergency in ENT, mortality from epistaxis is rare. [3]

Age

Patients of all age groups may experience epistaxis, but it is more prevalent in children and elderly patients.[4]

Race

Based on some studies epistaxis is more common in Caucasian compared with African-Americans.[5]
