Title
Topical epinephrine (adrenaline) as a haemostatic agent and its place in paramedic settings: a systematic review
Review Question
What evidence is available to support or oppose the use of topical epinephrine as a haemostatic agent in external wounds, burns, or epistaxis? Sub-questions: Is this evidence sufficient to support the use of topical epinephrine as a haemostatic agent in the paramedic setting? What concentrations of topical epinephrine are most effective at achieving haemostasis in different locations of the body? What are the potential clinical or logistical limitations that can prevent paramedic use of topical epinephrine in this setting?
Study Type Included
All related published studies and grey literature that satisfy other inclusion criteria. Data from randomised control trials will be supplemented with observational studies, experimental studies, systematic reviews, case studies, published guidelines, and other pertinent grey literature from eminent bodies.
Condition Being Studied
External bleeding, haemorrhage, epistaxis, burns, trauma
Participant
Inclusion: patients with external bleeding, epistaxis or burns Exclusion: patients with deep internal bleeding
Animal
Human Disease Modelled
Intervention
Topical epinephrine (adrenaline) as a haemostat monotherapy
Comparator Control
Epinephrine used in different concentrations. Other methods of haemostatic control. Studies without comparators will also be included.
Main Outcome
Time to haemostasis. Volume or rate of blood loss, which can be measured by the amount of blood and blood products left on gauze swab (Groenewold et al., 2011). Groenewold, M. D., Gribnau, A. J., & Ubbink, D. T. (2011). Topical haemostatic agents for skin wounds: a systematic review. BMC Surgery, 11(15), 1-8. https://doi.org/10.1186/1471-2482-11-15
Outcome Measure
Additional Outcome
Rate of wound healing, which can be measured by the proportion of re-epithelialised tissue after a specified period (Groenewold et al., 2011). Adverse effects (e.g. tachycardia, hypotension, tissue necrosis, increased infection (Korkmaz et al., 2015; List et al., 2021). Groenewold, M. D., Gribnau, A. J., & Ubbink, D. T. (2011).
