Two cohorts of patients were identified based on whether or not FloSeal was used intraoperatively during the completion of the monopolar dissection adenotonsillectomy. Outcomes that were measured included: (1) age, (2) sex, (3) diagnosis, (4) primary hemorrhage, (5) secondary hemorrhage, (6) return to operating room, and (7) dehydration. All binomial outcomes measured were subjected to chi\u2010square and <jats:italic>t<\/jats:italic> tests.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>Age and gender were similar between the 2\u00a0groups. Chronic tonsillitis was the primary indication more often in the control group; this was statistically significant. Primary hemorrhage occurred in 1 subject from each group (0.28%); secondary hemorrhage occurred in 11 subjects from the FloSeal group (3.22%) and 7 from the control group (1.87%). Both outcomes were not statistically different between the 2\u00a0groups. Return to operating room showed no statistically significant difference between groups.

Specifically, our data failed to demonstrate statistically significant reduction of: (1) primary hemorrhage, (2) secondary hemorrhage, (3) return to operating theatre, or (4)
