Clinical Trial Summary

The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of throat packs on PONV in dental treatments under general anesthesia in special health care needs.


Clinical Trial Description

Throat packs are widely used to prevent aspiration of blood and other debris, especially in orofacial surgeries and dental treatments performed under general anesthesia. Aspiration of blood and other secretions into the stomach is one of the important causes of PONV. There is not much evidence that throat packs prevent nausea and vomiting after surgery. The most critical side effects of throat pack application are sore throat, difficulty swallowing, and being forgotten before extubation. The incidence of cavities and other dental problems is higher in special health care needs due to reasons such as inadequate oral hygiene, malocclusion, high-carbohydrate diet, and lack of awareness about dental health. In this group of patients, dental treatments are primarily performed under general anesthesia. Since side effects are more difficult to identify by the patient, the procedures, technical applications and anaesthesia methods should be those with the least potential for side effects. Evidence is needed regarding the effect of throat packing on PONV. In this study, researchers planned to investigate the effects of using throat tampons during dental treatments under general anesthesia on PONV and sore throat in participants requiring special health care. ;
