A Comparison Of Local Anesthetic Agents And Steroid On Tracheal Tube Cuff (LA-STEROID)

November 17, 2023 updated by: ALI ULVI OLC, Derince Training and Research Hospital

A Comparison Between Local Anesthetics and Topical Cortikosteroids That is Applied to the Area of Cuff of Tracheal Intubation Tube in Pediatric Patients

This study aims to compare effects of two different agents on complications due to tracheal tube cuff in pediatric patients. Sore throat, hoarseness, laryngospasm, bronchospasm are the main complications.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

In the literature there were studies about both local anesthetic agents and topical steroids and different densities of saline which were applied to decrease airway complications. In this study researchers intended to compare effects of local anesthetic agents and topical steroids applying around tracheal tube on airway complications which may occur in the first 24 hours after surgery. All pediatric patients scheduled for elective surgery will be recruited. enrolled patients will randomly assigned in to three groups: Control group, local anesthetic group and topical steroid group.
