  • Nasal-packing article
    Patent number: 5584827
    Abstract: A nasal packing article, made from a material that is expansible when wetted, is formed with a plurality of laminae that are independently movable and separable from one another, and that expand to effectively exert hemostatic pressure. The article may comprise an assembly of layers interengaged in face-to-face contact, or it may be defined by slits that extend entirely through the thickness or width of the body but terminate short of one end, to leave the laminae connected thereat.
