Epistaxis is one of the most frequently encountered emergency problems in our country, as it is throughout the world. In epistaxis, the benefits of implementing clinical guidelines are evident in both daily practice and medical education. In this article, the authors aimed to present their approach to adult patients with epistaxis and to share their experience, which considered the life quality of the patients to be at the forefront, based on some of their patients. In management of epistaxis, the implementation of the simplest method, minimally affecting the life quality of the patient, may be easier with a stepped approach. The authors consider that the stepped approach that they have implemented and presented in their study may lead to using less invasive methods and may accordingly improve the life quality of the patient.
