Brief Summary
Modification(s)  
VELNEZ nasal pack, manufactured and marketed by Datt Mediproducts Private Limited, offers a novel solution as a biodegradable composite nasal dressing. It fragments naturally within a few days of application (3-5 days), obviating the need for painful removal. VELNEZ is designed to provide effective hemostasis, reduce fibrosis, and promote healing while minimizing patient discomfort. By eliminating the risks associated with traditional nasal packing methods, VELNEZ holds significant promise as a safer and more tolerable alternative for pediatric patients.
The rationale for this multi-centric, non-randomized post-marketing surveillance study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of VELNEZ in pediatric patients (aged 5 to 17 years) undergoing nasal surgery. The study will assess its efficacy in ceasing reactive and secondary bleeding, its non-adhesive properties, and its overall safety profile based on adverse event reporting. Additionally, the study aims to evaluate patient-reported outcomes such as pain levels using, Visual Analog Scale, Breathing effect by Nasal Obstruction Symptom Evaluation (NOSE Score ) And an Endoscopy examination throughout the Study. 
Through this study, we aim to generate robust post-marketing data that will further validate the clinical benefits of VELNEZ in this vulnerable population, ensuring its safe and effective use in routine clinical practice.
