RESUMO
BACKGROUND: Postoperative sore throat (POST) is a common postoperative complication. COMPLICATION: Chewing gum can inhibit the growth of oral bacteria, cleanse, and lubricate the oral cavity, which can help reduce postoperative sore throat. We hypothesize that chewing gum before surgery could relieve POST. METHODS: Patients planned to undergo total thyroidectomy under general anesthesia with tracheal intubation were randomized to swallow saliva twice or chew 1.4 g/2.8 g of gum for 2 minutes before surgery. A standard anesthesia protocol was performed. The numerical rating scale scores of POST at 1, 24, and 48 h after surgery were collected. The primary outcome was the incidence of moderate/severe POST (numerical rating scale score >3) within 48 h. RESULTS: Data from 148 patients (control group, n = 50; 1.4 g group, n = 48; and 2.8 g group, n = 50) were included in the analysis. Within 48 h, there was a significant difference among the three groups in the incidence of moderate/severe POST (control group: 74% vs. 1.4 g group: 65% vs. 2.8 g group: 50%. P = 0.04). The 2.8 g group had less incidence of moderate/severe POST than the control group (Odds Ratio = 0.351 95% Confidence Interval: (0.152 and 0.814) P = 0.02). CONCLUSION: Chewing 2.8 g gum before total thyroidectomy can reduce the incidence of moderate/severe POST within 48 h after surgery.

BACKGROUND: The neuromuscular blocking agent mivacurium can be used during anesthesia to facilitate tracheal intubation. Data on onset time, duration of action, and effect on intubating conditions in patients 80 years and older are however limited. We hypothesized that onset time and duration of action of mivacurium would be longer in elderly patients than in younger adults. METHODS: This prospective observational study included 35 elderly (≥80 years) and 35 younger (18-40 years) patients. Induction of anesthesia comprised fentanyl 1-3 µg kg-1 and propofol 1.5-2.5 mg kg-1 and propofol and remifentanil for maintenance. Acceleromyography was used for monitoring neuromuscular blockade. The primary outcome was onset time defined as time from injection of mivacurium 0.2 mg kg-1 to a train-of-four (TOF) count of zero. Other outcomes included duration of action (time to TOF ratio ≥0.9), intubating conditions using the Fuchs-Buder scale and the intubating difficulty scale (IDS), and occurrence of hoarseness and sore throat postoperatively. RESULTS: No difference was found in onset time comparing elderly with younger patients; 219 s (SD 45) versus 203 s (SD 74) (difference: 16 s (95% CI: -45 to 14), p = .30). Duration of action was significantly longer in elderly patients compared with younger patients; 52 min (SD 17) versus 30 min (SD 8) (difference: 22 min [95% CI: 15 to 28], p < .001). No difference was found in the proportion of excellent intubating conditions (Fuchs-Buder); 31/35 (89%) versus 26/35 (74%) (p = .12) or IDS score (p = .13). A larger proportion of younger patients reported sore throat 24 h postoperatively; 34% versus 0%, p = .0002. No difference was found in hoarseness. CONCLUSION: No difference in onset time of mivacurium 0.2 mg kg-1 was found comparing elderly and younger patients. However, elderly patients had significantly longer duration of action. No difference was found in intubating conditions.

Hyperangulated videolaryngoscopes are known to increase the success rate of tracheal intubation in the setting of difficult airway management when used with a stylet or bougie. However, there is controversy over which adjunct is more useful. This randomised study aimed to compare first attempt tracheal intubation success rate between a stylet and bougie when using a hyperangulated videolaryngoscope. We recruited patients aged > 20 years who were scheduled for elective surgery under general anaesthesia and required tracheal intubation. We only included patients with factors predicting difficult tracheal intubation based on pre-anaesthesia airway evaluation. Tracheal intubation was attempted using a Glidescope® with either a stylet or bougie as an adjunct according to group assignment. Primary outcome was the success rate of the first tracheal intubation attempt, and secondary outcomes were success of second and third attempts; tracheal intubation time; and occurrence of sore throat, dysphagia or hoarseness. A total of 166 patients were included. The success rate of the first tracheal intubation attempt was significantly higher in patients allocated to the bougie group compared with those allocated to the stylet group (81/83 (98%) vs. 73/83 (88%), respectively; p = 0.032). The number of patients who needed two attempts was significantly lower in those allocated to the bougie group compared with those allocated to the stylet group (1/83 (1%) vs. 9/83 (11%), respectively; p = 0.018). Each group had one patient (1%) where tracheal intubation was achieved after a third attempt. There was no significant difference in the occurrence of sore throat, dysphagia and hoarseness between the two groups. When difficult tracheal intubation is anticipated and a hyperangulated videolaryngoscope is used, the success rate of the first attempt is higher when a bougie is used compared with a stylet.

BACKGROUND: Post-operative sore throat (POST) has an incidence ranging from 21 to 80%. To prevent the development of POST, several pharmacological measures have been tried. Aim of this study was to compare the efficacy of preoperative zinc, magnesium and budesonide gargles in reducing the incidence and severity of POST in patients who underwent endotracheal intubation for elective surgeries. METHODS: We conducted a prospective, randomized, double-blind, controlled equivalence trial in 180 patients admitted for elective surgical procedures under general anaesthesia. Patients were randomised into three groups; group Z received 40 mg Zinc, group M received 250 mg Magnesium Sulphate and group B received 200 µg Budesonide in the form of 30 ml tasteless and colourless gargle solutions. Sore throat assessment and haemodynamic recording was done postoperatively at immediate recovery (0 h) and 2, 4, 6, 8, 12 and 24 h post-operatively. POST was graded on a four-point scale (0-3). RESULTS: POST score was comparable at all recorded time points i.e. 0,2,4,6,8,12 and 24 h. Maximum incidence was seen at 8 h in group B (33.3%) and the minimum incidence was at 24 h in group Z (10%) (p > 0.05). It was found that the incidence of POST was more in the surgeries lasting longer than 2 h in all groups. This difference was found to be statistically significant in Groups M and B. The incidence of POST was found to be comparable between laparoscopic and open procedures. CONCLUSION: Magnesium, zinc and budesonide have an equivocal effect in the prevention of POST at different time points. The incidence of sore throat increases significantly in surgeries lasting more than two hours if magnesium or budesonide have been used as premedicant. Duration of surgery is an independent predictor for POST. TRIAL REGISTRATION: CTRI/2021/05/033741 Date-24/05/2021(Clinical Trial Registry of India).

BACKGROUND: Postoperative sore throat (POST) is an unpleasant outcome that can occur as a result of tracheal intubation in adults. Increased pressure from the endotracheal tube (ETT) cuff often leads to local mucosal injury, resulting in sore throat. The purpose of this study was to compare the effect of two different ETT cuff pressure monitoring systems vs. no cuff pressure monitoring on the incidence and severity of POST in adults. METHODS: One hundred and fourteen ASA I-III patients of either gender, aged 18-65 years, and undergoing surgery requiring endotracheal intubation were included in this study. Patients were randomized into three groups: control (C), cuff pressure gauge (G), and automated cuff controller (A). The ETT cuff pressure was not monitored intraoperatively in group C but was monitored using a cuff pressure gauge and an automated cuff controller in groups G and A, respectively. Postoperatively, patients were assessed at 2, 24, and 48 h for the presence and severity of POST, hoarseness and cough. RESULTS: One hundred and eleven patients completed the study. POST occurred in 40.5% of the patients in group G (n = 37) (p = 0.013) and 23.7% of the patients in group A (n = 38) (p < 0.001) within 48 h after surgery, compared to 69.4% in group C (n = 36). There were no significant differences in hoarseness, coughing, and dysphagia across the groups at any time. When comparing groups A and C, individuals in group A exhibited a lower occurrence of significant (grade ≥ 2) POST and hoarseness (10.5% vs. 41.7%, p = 0.002; 26.3% vs. 58.3%, p = 0.005). The incidence of significant cough and dysphagia did not differ substantially across the patient groups within 48 h after surgery. POST scores in group A at 2, 24 h postoperatively were both 0 (0-0), which was significantly lower than those in group C (1 (0-2) at 2 h, p < 0.001 ; 1 (0-1) at 24 h, p = 0.001). POST in group G at 2 h postoperatively was graded as 0 (0-1.5) which was milder than group C (P = 0.024). The severity of hoarseness in group A with scores of 0 (0-2) was superior to that in group C (2 (0-2), p = 0.006) at 2 h postoperatively. CONCLUSIONS: In conclusion, the findings of this study indicated that the occurrence of POST can be reduced by using either the cuff pressure gauge approach or the automated cuff controller method. The automated cuff controller monitoring can potentially decrease the severity of POST and hoarseness.

BACKGROUND: Post-operative sore throat is the common complaint and uncomfortable side effect in patients receiving general anesthesia with endotracheal intubation. Drugs with analgesic and anti-inflammatory properties, like steroids and local anesthetics, are the best options for postoperative sore throat prophylaxis. Therefore, this study aimed to compare the effects of intravenous lidocaine and dexamethasone in reducing postoperative sore throat following endotracheal extubation at Tikur Anbessa Specialized Hospital, Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, from January 1 to March 30, 2023 G.C. METHODS: A prospective cohort study was carried out at Tikur Anbessa Specialized Hospital. Data from 50 patients in the lidocaine (1.5 mg/kg), 50 in the dexamethasone (8 mg), and 49 in the control groups were analyzed. The data were collected using observation based on structured questionnaires. A systematic random sampling technique was applied to select respondents. The data were entered into EpiData version 4.6.0.6 and transferred to STATA version 17 statistical software for analysis. A comparison of continuous data among the groups were performed using a one-way ANOVA test for parametric data. The Kruskal-Wallis rank test was used for non-parametric data. Associations between variables were tested using chi-squared test, Fisher's exact test, and binary logistic regression. Bivariable and multivariable logistic regression was used to determine degree of association. RESULTS: The incidence of POST was 40%, 32%, and 57.1% in the lidocaine, dexamethasone, and control groups, respectively (P = .0356). Dexamethasone reduced the incidence of POST during the first 24 h (AOR: 0.374, 95% CI: 0.149-0.939). However, no difference was observed in the severity of POST at 3 h (p = 0.130), 6 h (p = 0.096), 12 h (p = 0.313), and 24 h (p = 0.525) of the post-extubation period among the three groups. IV lidocaine did not effectively reduce the incidence and severity of postoperative sore throat at different time intervals. CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATION: Intravenous dexamethasone is more effective than intravenous lidocaine in reducing the incidence of postoperative sore throat among the groups. Based on these findings, intravenous dexamethasone is recommended to decrease the incidence of postoperative sore throat.

BACKGROUND: Tracheal injuries, vocal cord injuries, sore throat and hoarseness are common complications of double-lumen tube (DLT) intubation. OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to evaluate the effects of 'video double-lumen tubes' (VDLTs) on intubation complications in patients undergoing thoracic surgery. DESIGN: A randomised controlled study. SETTINGT: Xuzhou Cancer Hospital, Xuzhou, China, from January 2023 to June 2023. PATIENTS: One hundred eighty-two patients undergoing elective thoracic surgery with one-lung ventilation were randomised into two groups: 90 in the DLT group and 92 in the VDLT group. INTERVENTION: VDLT was selected for intubation in the VDLT group, and DLT was selected for intubation in the DLT group. A fibreoptic bronchoscope (FOB) was used to record tracheal and vocal cord injuries. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: The primary outcomes were the incidence of moderate-to-severe tracheal injury and the incidence of vocal cord injury. The secondary outcomes included the incidence and severity of postoperative 24 and 48âh sore throat and hoarseness. RESULTS: The incidence of moderate-to-severe tracheal injury was 32/90 (35.6%) in the DLT group, and 45/92 (48.9%) in the VDLT group ( P â=â0.077; relative risk 1.38, 95% CI, 0.97 to 1.95). The incidence of vocal cord injury was 31/90 (34.4%) and 34/92 (37%) in the DLT and VDLT groups, respectively ( P â=â0.449). The incidence of postoperative 24âh sore throat and hoarseness was significantly higher in the VDLT group than in the DLT group (for sore throat: P â=â0.032, relative risk 1.63, 95% CI, 1.03 to 2.57; for hoarseness: P â=â0.018, relative risk 1.48, 95% CI, 1.06 to 2.06). CONCLUSION: There was no statistically significant difference in the incidence of moderate-to-severe tracheal injury and vocal cord injury between DLTs and VDLTs. While improving the first-attempt success rate, intubation with VDLT increased the incidence of postoperative 24âh sore throat and hoarseness.

BACKGROUND: Tracheal intubation sometimes causes postoperative sore throat (POST) due to laryngeal damage. However, clinical observations suggest that the environment of the oral cavity may also affect POST. OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to investigate whether salivary pH in the oral cavity affects POST. METHODS: After obtaining ethical approval, informed consent was obtained from all patients. Patients who underwent surgery in the supine position were enrolled as the control group. Patients who underwent laparoscopic surgery in the head-down position were enrolled as the intervention group. Immediately before both groups of patients were anaesthetised, expelled saliva was collected, and salivary pH was measured. Immediately postoperatively, the same measurement was carried out before the patient regained consciousness. The primary outcome was the change in salivary pH. The secondary outcome was POST. In our study, POST was defined as pharyngeal and swallowing pain in the glossopharyngeal and superior laryngeal nerves. The normal distribution of pH was tested using the Shapiro-Wilk test followed by analysis using repeated-measurements and one-way analysis of variance. Statistical significance was set at p < .05. RESULTS: A total of 62 patients were enrolled, of whom two were excluded based on the exclusion criteria. Salivary pH in the intervention group was significantly lower than that in the control group. Five patients had POST in the intervention group, whereas none had POST in the control group had POST. CONCLUSION: Acidotic-shifted saliva is considered one of the causes of POST.

Background The I-LMA ventilates while providing a port for blind insertion of an endotracheal tube. The ILMA Fastrach is used especially for intubating in a difficult airway scenario. Its accompanying endotracheal tube is not economical nor readily available. In comparison, two alternative endotracheal tubes - polyvinyl chloride and wire-reinforced tubes were used for tracheal intubation through the ILMA. AIMS AND OBJECTIVES: The aim of our study was to compare the ease of intubation when using conventional PVC tubes versus the wire-reinforced flexometallic tubes with the ILMA-FastrachTM. The number of attempts, time taken and additional maneuvers were noted. Intra-operative hemodynamic changes, post-operative sore throat, bleeding and hoarseness of voice was recorded over a period of 24 hours. METHODOLOGY: After informed consent, 60 ASA I-II patients undergoing elective surgeries under general anesthesia were allocated to undergo blind intubation with the PVC tube or the wire-reinforced flexometallic tube. RESULTS: More attempts were required for successful intubation using the wire-reinforced tube than the PVC tube with 76.7% passing in the first attempt in the PVC, and 53.3% passing in the first attempt in the flexometallic group. (P = 0.4). Average time for intubation in the PVC group: 28.24 ± 7.22 seconds. Average time for intubation in the flexometallic tube: 45.8 ± 15.78 sec. Occurrence of post-operative sore throat was 13.3% in the PVC group and 26.6% in the flexometallic group, with minimal hoarseness of voice 3.3% in the PVC group and 10% in the flexometallic group. There was also a slightly higher hemodynamic response in those who were intubated with the flexometallic tube than a PVC tube. CONCLUSION: Intubating via the ILMA-Fastrach with the PVC tube offered better intubating conditions with regards to lesser time taken, lesser attempts, less manipulation, and less hemodynamic variations as compared to the patients who were intubated using the wire-reinforced tube.
Résumé Arrière-plan: L'I-LMA ventile tout en fournissant un port pour l'insertion aveugle d'une sonde endotrachéale. L'ILMA Fastrach est utilisé notamment pour l'intubation dans un scénario de voies respiratoires difficiles. La sonde endotrachéale qui l'accompagne n'est ni économique ni facilement disponible. En comparaison, deux tubes endotrachéaux alternatifs du chlorure de polyvinyle et des tubes renforcés de fil ont été utilisés pour l'intubation trachéale via l'ILMA. Buts et objectifs: Le but de notre étude était de comparer la facilité d'intubation lors de l'utilisation de tubes en PVC conventionnels par rapport aux tubes flexométalliques renforcés de fil avec l'ILMA-FastrachTM. Le nombre de tentatives, le temps nécessaire et les manÓuvres supplémentaires ont été notés. Les changements hémodynamiques peropératoires, les maux de gorge postopératoires, les saignements et l'enrouement de la voix ont été enregistrés sur une période de 24 heures. Méthodologie: Après consentement éclairé, 60 patients ASA I-II subissant des interventions chirurgicales électives sous anesthésie générale ont été affectés à une intubation aveugle avec le tube en PVC ou le tube flexométallique renforcé de fil. Résultats: Plus de tentatives ont été nécessaires pour réussir l'intubation à l'aide du tube renforcé par fil métallique qu'avec le tube PVC, avec 76,7 % de réussite lors de la première tentative dans le groupe PVC et 53,3 % de réussite lors de la première tentative dans le groupe flexométallique. (P = 0,4). Temps moyen d'intubation dans le groupe PVC : 28,24 ± 7,22 secondes. Temps moyen d'intubation dans le tube flexométallique : 45,8 ± 15,78 sec. La survenue de maux de gorge postopératoires était de 13,3 % dans le groupe PVC et de 26,6 % dans le groupe flexométallique, avec un enrouement minime de la voix de 3,3 % dans le groupe PVC et de 10 % dans le groupe flexométallique. Il y avait également une réponse hémodynamique légèrement plus élevée chez ceux qui étaient intubés avec le tube flexométallique qu'avec un tube en PVC. Conclusion: L'intubation via l'ILMA-Fastrach avec le tube en PVC offrait de meilleures conditions d'intubation en ce qui concerne moins de temps, moins de tentatives, moins de manipulations et moins de variations hémodynamiques par rapport aux patients intubés à l'aide du tube renforcé de fil Mots-clés: Facilité d'intubation, sonde endotrachéale flexométallique, masque laryngé d'intubation des voies respiratoires, sonde endotrachéale en polychlorure de vinyle.

OBJECTIVES: To investigate the effects and safety of lidocaine viscous gargle on postoperative sore throat (POST) in patients receiving a laryngeal mask airway (LMA) in general anesthesia. METHODS: In this randomized controlled trial, 90 patients undergoing urological surgery were allocated into 2 treatment arms (n=45): lidocaine viscous gargle before LMA insertion (Group G) and topical application of lidocaine viscous on the LMA (Group T). Outcome data were collected before placement of LMA (T0), after insertion of LMA (T1), immediately (T2), one hour (T3), and 24 hours after removal of LMA (T4). We analyzed the incidence of POST, pharynx dryness, and adverse events. RESULTS: The incidence of POST was lower in Group G than Group T at T2 (11.1% vs. 28.9%; p=0.063), T3 (11.1% vs. 24.4%; p=0.167), and T4 (2.2% vs. 4.4%; p=0.566), but there was no significant difference between groups. No patient in either group experienced severe pain or treatment-related adverse events. There was a significantly lower incidence of pharynx dryness in Group G than Group T (p<0.05) at T2, T3, and T4. CONCLUSION: Lidocaine viscous gargle showed no statistically significant difference in incidence of POST and incidence of pharynx dryness compared with topical application of lidocaine on the LMA. Both approaches were safe for patients receiving LMA.Chinese Clinical Trial Register No.: ChiCTR2200059720.

Introduction: Postoperative sore throat is the second most common minor adverse event after general anaesthesia with endotracheal intubation. It is an uncomfortable and stressful sequel of tracheal intubation. The incidence of postoperative sore throat varies across different studies and type of anesthesia technique used. The aim of the study was to find out the prevalence of postoperative sore throat following general anaesthesia with endotracheal intubation in a tertiary care centre. Methods: A descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted among the patients who underwent surgery under general anaesthesia with endotracheal intubation from 1 December 2022 to 31 October 2023 after receiving ethical approval from the Institutional Review Committee. The anaesthesia technique was standardized in all the patients. A convenience sampling method was used. The point estimate was calculated at a 95% Confidence Interval. Results: Among 200 patients, postoperative sore throat was seen in 86 (43%) (36.14-49.86, 95% Confidence Interval) patients. The maximum reported time of sore throat was at a fourth postoperative hour 80 (93.02%). Conclusions: The prevalence of postoperative sore throat among patients undergoing surgery under general anaesthesia with endotracheal intubation was similar to the studies conducted in similar settings. Keywords: endotracheal intubation; general anaesthesia; prevalence.

OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the effectiveness of peri-intubation non-pharmacological interventions in reducing postoperative sore throat (POST), cough (PEC), and hoarseness in surgical patients. DESIGN: A systematic review with meta-analysis and meta-regression. SETTING: Elective surgery under general anesthesia in operating rooms. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Evaluate the impact of non-pharmacological interventions, including pre-intubation (gargling with Sodium Azulene Sulfonate, licorice, or using Strepsils tablets of honey and lemon lozenge), during-intubation (inflating the TT cuff with normal saline and softening the ETT cuff with warm normal saline), and post-intubation (cold vapor therapy, gargling with honey lemon water, and using green tea gargle), on the occurrence of POST, PEC, and hoarseness. RESULTS: Nineteen trials with 2,136 participants were included. Pre-intubation intervention significantly reduced POST immediately after extubation (n = 861; OR: 0.28, 95 % CI: 0.20-0.38, P < 0.001), and 24 h post-extubation (n = 1006; OR: 0.21, 95 % CI: 0.16-0.28, P < 0.001). During-intubation intervention did not show significant effects on POST. Pre-intubation intervention also reduced POST-associated pain score at 24 h post-extubation (n = 440; MD: -0.50, 95 % CI: -0.81 to -0.18, P < 0.001). Post-intubation interventions were effective in reducing POST-associated pain scores at different time points post-extubation (P < 0.05). Pre-intubation intervention significantly reduced PEC (OR: 0.13, 95 % CI: 0.02-0.70, P = 0.02) and hoarseness (OR: 0.36, 95 %CI: 0.15-0.86, P = 0.02) at 24 h post-extubation. However, during-intubation interventions did not reduce hoarseness at 24 h post-extubation. CONCLUSION: Pre-intubation non-pharmacological interventions were found to be the most effective in reducing the incidence and severity of POST, PEC, and hoarseness. IMPLICATIONS FOR CLINICAL PRACTICE: Implementing pre-intubation non-pharmacological interventions can be beneficial for bedside nurses and healthcare professionals in reducing postoperative complications and nurses can contribute to improving patient comfort and recovery outcomes following surgery. SYSTEMATIC REVIEW PROTOCOL: The protocol was registered in the PROSPERO international prospective register of systematic reviews on 2 January 2024 (CRD42023492813).

OBJECTIVE: The present study aimed to compare the effect of topical laryngeal lidocaine with intravenous lidocaine before endotracheal intubation on the incidence and severity of postoperative sore throat, hoarseness, and cough. PATIENTS AND METHODS: This prospective randomized controlled study enrolled 144 patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy with endotracheal intubation. The patients were randomized to three groups and received 2% lidocaine by topical laryngeal spray (group T), intravenous 2% lidocaine (group I), and the equivalent volume of intravenous saline (group C) before intubation. The incidence and severity of sore throat, hoarseness, and cough reaction at 0.5, 1, 6, and 24 h after extubation were collected. RESULTS: The incidence of sore throat was significantly lower in group T than in groups I and C (6.4% vs. 37.2% and 86.7%, p < 0.001), respectively at 0.5 h after extubation, and it was significantly lower in group I than that in group C (37.2% vs. 86.7%, p < 0.001). Both the incidence of hoarseness and cough were significantly lower in group T than in group I and in group C (14.9% vs. 97.7% and 97.8%, p < 0.001, and 19.1% vs. 72.0% and 93.3%, p < 0.001), respectively. The severity of sore throat, hoarseness and cough in group T was significantly lower than that in group I and that in group C (p < 0.05), and it was significantly lower in group I than in group C (p < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS: Both topical laryngeal lidocaine and intravenous lidocaine before intubation have positive effects on preventing sore throat. Topical laryngeal route was superior to intravenous route.

Periodic fever syndromes are autoinflammatory disorders associated with recurrent fevers unrelated to infection. Little is known about the perioperative management of patients with these syndromes, and existing literature consists primarily of case reports and occasional case series. This narrative review discusses background information and diagnostic criteria for the three most common periodic fever syndromes: periodic fever, aphthous stomatitis, pharyngitis, adenitis (PFAPA), familial Mediterranean fever (FMF), and TNF receptor-associated periodic syndrome (TRAPS), and describes perioperative considerations for anesthesia providers when caring for the patient with a periodic fever syndrome. We include a systems-based framework in which to organize these considerations.

Postoperative sore throat is one well-recognized complication, occurring most frequently following tracheal intubation. Effective prevention of postoperative sore throat has been recognized as a top priority, bringing pleasant feelings and satisfaction to patients. This study aimed to assess the efficacy of magnesium sulfate, dexmedetomidine and ondansetron gargle with lidocaine administrated prior to laryngoscopy and tracheal intubation for postoperative sore throat prevention alongside hemodynamic management. This double-blind randomized clinical trial enrolled 105 general anesthesia-administered patients who had undergone laryngoscopy and endotracheal intubation, and they were equally randomized into three groups: magnesium sulfate, dexmedetomidine, and ondansetron groups. No significant intergroup difference was seen in oxygen saturation, non-invasive blood pressure, heart rate, duration of surgery, postoperative complications, analgesic consumption, and incidence of cough and hoarseness. The results showed statistically significant intergroup differences in pain scores and average pain intensity in the dexmedetomidine group was significantly lower than the other groups. Results suggest that dexmedetomidine gargle with lidocaine before general anesthesia induction could be recommended as an option depending on the patient's general condition and the anesthesiologist's discretion.

OBJECTIVES: To assess the safety and efficacy of superior laryngeal nerve block (SLNB) for microlaryngoscopic surgery (MLS). DATA SOURCES: PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, Ovid Medline, Cochrane Library, CNKI database, VIP database, Wanfang database, and trial registry databases. METHODS: PICOS principles were performed: adults undergoing MLS receiving SLNB compared with no-SLNB in randomized controlled trials were included. Primary outcome included the incidence of severe postoperative sore throat (POST). Secondary outcomes included perioperative mean arterial pressure (MAP) and heart rate (HR), incidence of severe postoperative cough, and anesthesia recovery time. RESULTS: Eleven articles with 728 patients were included. Results indicated that SLNB provides lower incidence of severe POST in post-extubation 30 min (relative ratio [RR] = 0.13; 95% confidence intervals [CIs]: 0.05 ~ 0.34), 2 h (RR = 0.09; 95% CI: 0.02 ~ 0.36), 4-6 h (RR = 0.11; 95% CI: 0.03 ~ 0.41), and 24 h (RR = 0.15; 95% CI: 0.03 ~ 0.83); lower MAP (tracheal intubation: standardized mean difference [SMD] = -1.59; 95% CI: -1.69 to -0.42); suspension laryngoscope insertion: (SMD = -0.98; 95% CI: -1.49 to -0.46); tracheal extubation: (SMD = -0.78; 95% CI:-1.24 to -0.31); post-extubation 5 min: (SMD = -0.95; 95% CI: -1.41 to -0.49); lower HR (tracheal intubation: mean difference [MD] = -9.71; 95% CI: -17.16 to -2.27); suspension laryngoscope insertion: (MD = -8.64; 95% CI: -16.79 to -0.49); tracheal extubation: (MD = -10.13; 95% CI: -17.86 to -2.39); post-extubation 5 min: (MD = -13.44; 95% CI: -22.53 to -4.35); lower incidence of severe postoperative cough in post-extubation 30 min (RR = 0.18; 95% CI: 0.06 ~ 0.57) and 2 h (RR = 0.13; 95% CI: 0.02 ~ 0.69); and shorter anesthesia recovery time (MD = -5.34; 95% CI: -8.81 to -1.86) compared to controls. CONCLUSIONS: SLNB could provide lower incidence of severe POST, more stable perioperative MAP and HR, lower incidence of severe postoperative cough, and shorter anesthesia recovery time for MLS.
