Comparison Between Lidocaine Inhalation and Intravenous Dexamethasone in Reducing Postoperative Sore Throat Frequency After Laryngeal Mask Insertion

Abstract: BackgroundThe frequency of postoperative sore throat (POST) after laryngeal mask airway insertion (LMA) was relatively high. Lidocaine might reduce the pain and inflammatory response. Additionally, inhalation form might result in a better distribution, which results in a better airway analgesia and minimal systemic effect.ObjectivesTo compare the incidence of sore throat post LMA insertion after 1.5 mg/kg of lidocaine inhalation and 10 mg of intravenous dexamethasone.MethodsThis was a single-blinded randomized… Show more

“…This concept of transfer of molecules from the nose to the brain is called the nose-to-brain pathway and is used for centrally acting drugs, including sedatives, anticonvulsants, and narcotics. Since 1996, intranasal administration of lidocaine in various concentrations has been used successfully in the treatment of migraine and trigeminal neuralgia (26)(27)(28).…”

“…Without muscle relaxants, the pharyngeal tissues are not relaxed, and appropriate laryngeal mask placement is difficult owing to resistance to mouth opening and biting [5]. Moreover, muscle relaxation is needed to avoid excessive airway reactivity of laryngeal mask insertion (e.g., laryngeal spasm, hypersalivation, coughing), to reduce laryngeal mask insertion-related complications (e.g., postoperative throat pain), and to reduce the incidence of airway complications such as hypoxia, ineffective ventilation, and sternal muscle stiffness that are induced by opioid analgesics [6][7][8]. Analgesic and narcotic agents are required in high dosages without the use of muscle relaxants, and an overdose of analgesic agents can inhibit the patient's haemodynamics [9].…”
