The questions mainly relate to our staff’s confidence and opinions on our new epistaxis management, which were rated by the respondents through the 5-point Likert scale. The average of the score of individual question were then calculated and compared. 24 nursing staff with nursing experience ranging from two to fifteen years were recruited in the comparison study. All of them had attended the training workshop with the details of the flow chart; guidebook and the bedside procedure checklist as well as the knowledge & skill on epistaxis and nasal packing were introduced.
