Summary

This study aims to determine the prevalence of epistaxis and identify the associated risk factors among patients receiving oral anticoagulants and antiplatelet at a tertiary care hospital in Nepal.

A cross-sectional study was conducted among 284 patients receiving oral anticoagulants at a tertiary care hospital over a one-year period. Data were collected through structured interviews and medical record reviews. The prevalence of epistaxis with corresponding 95% CI was calculated, and risk factors were analyzed using multivariate logistic regression. A receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was determined to establish the suitability of the model.
