Effectiveness of Intracuff instillation with alkalinized 2% Lidocaine versus Ketamine in attenuating post-operative sore throat

International Journal of Medical Anesthesiology · 2021 · Vol. 4(1) · pp. 88–90

Abstract

Various pharmacological and non-pharmacological methods have been used for attenuating post operative sore throat with varying results. The use of smaller tracheal tubes, supraglottic devices, careful airway instrumentation, gentle suction of the oropharynx, water-soluble jelly on the tracheal tube, lower Intracuff pressure etc. are some of the non-pharmacological methods which have been used to reduce the incidence of POST (15) and emergence coughing.
