Detailed Description

Adult patients undergoing video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) requiring double lumen tube (DLT) endotracheal intubation for one-lung ventilation (OLV) were enrolled in the study. Patients were randomized by means of computer-generated order randomization into two groups: Group C (those who received a saline solution as placebo delivered by nebulization) and Group L (those who received lidocaine delivered by nebulization).

At 1, 6 and 24 h after tracheal extubation, an observer blinded to treatments evaluated the patients in terms of sore throat and hoarseness. In addition, Patients' satisfaction, intraoperative and postoperative opioid and analgesics consumption and complaints such as dysphagia, nausea and vomiting were recorded. Hemodynamic variables such as blood pressure and heart rate were also recorded.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Changes in the incidence of postoperative sore throat
Time Frame: 24 hours
Sore throat was assessed using a 0-100 mm visual analog scale (VAS), where a score of 0 represents no pain and a score of 100 reflects the worst pain imaginable.
24 hours

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Changes in mean arterial pressure
Time Frame: 60 minutes
Assessed every 5 minutes during the procedure
60 minutes
Changes in heart rate
Time Frame: 60 minutes
Assessed every 5 minutes during the procedure
60 minutes
whether the hoarseness was present or not
Time Frame: 24 hours
Hoarseness was defined as a change in voice quality and it was assessed by the patients themselves. The change in voice quality at any time during the observation period was defined as "hoarseness was present".
24 hours
Intraoperative opioid consumption
Time Frame: 60 minutes
Assessed in intraoperative period
60 minutes
Postoperative analgesic consumption
Time Frame: 24 hours
Assessed in postoperative period
24 hours
