Filter by:This investigation is planned to compare the incidence and severity of postoperative sore throat according to the dose of remifentanil.
Participants who meet the eligibility criteria and who consent to participation or whose parents/legal guardian consent to their participation, will be enrolled in the study for a period of up to 14 days. Enrolment visit (Day 1) assessments for all participants will include the collection of throat swabs, testing by staff at the site using the ellume·lab Group A Strep Test and testing for Group A Streptococcus by a central laboratory using bacterial culture and polymerase chain reaction (PCR). All participants will be followed up with a phone assessment of adverse events between Days 2-14.
Sore throat is minor but well recognized complaint after receiving general anaesthesia. It is rated as 8th most undesirable outcome in postoperative period.It not only affects the patient's satisfaction but also can affect patient activities after leaving hospital. Many factors can contribute to postoperative sore throat and the incidence has been found to vary with the method by which airway is managed. The study is conducted to compare the severity and frequency of postoperative sore throat in children undergoing elective surgery following the use of AmbuAuraOnce LMA and I-Gel. The study will be done in children who are able to self-report the severity of sore throat. This study will help us to determine which supraglottic device (I-gel vs. AmbuAuraOnce LMA) is better in terms of causing less complication spells of sore throat. The use of such device will not only reduce the severity and frequency of postoperative sore throat that may affect the activities of patient after leaving hospital but also will improve satisfaction level of patient and parents.
Group A streptococcal (GAS) pharyngitis in children represents a frequent diagnostic challenge in pediatric emergency departments, since isolated signs and clinical prediction rules are insufficient to accurately discriminate between GAS and non GAS infections. Rapid antigen detection tests (RADTs) therefore remain essential, simple and rapid tools, allowing for rapid GAS identification and prompt antibiotic prescription. However, their sensitivity is not optimal. The aim of the present study is to test the accuracy of a new fluorescent immunoassay (Sofia Strep A FIA) using the optical technology for GAS detection in children 3-15 years old with pharyngitis, compared to a standard RADT, using throat culture as the gold standard (or PCR for discrepant results, i.e. negative culture with any positive RADT).
The patients will be allocated to 2 groups: the LMA group and the endotracheal tube (ET) group. Airway management will be done with the LMA Protector for the patients of the LMA group and with the classic endotracheal tube for the patients of the ET group. The main purpose of the study is to determine if the application of the LMA Protector causes less laryngopharyngeal symptoms than the endotracheal tube after minimally invasive thyroidectomy. The secondary purpose is to confirm that the LMA Protector is a safe alternative airway management device for minimally invasive thyroidectomy.
The purpose of this study was to evaluate no less therapeutic efficacy and safety of the Angal, lozenges [Menthol], 1 mg + 5 mg (Sandoz dd, Slovenia) compared to ANTI-ANGIN® FORMULA, lozenges, 0,2 mg + 2 mg + 50 mg (LLC "Valeant", Russia) in treatment of patients with uncomplicated acute infectious and inflammatory diseases of the pharynx, accompanied by a sore throat.
The purpose of this study was to evaluate no less therapeutic efficacy and safety of the Angal S, topical spray [Menthol], 0,5 mg + 2 mg (Sandoz dd, Slovenia) compared to ANTI-ANGIN® FORMULA, topical metered spray, 0,12 mg + 0,24 mg (LLC "Valeant", Russia) in treatment of patients with uncomplicated acute infectious and inflammatory diseases of the pharynx, accompanied by a sore throat.
This study is designed to examine the effect of benzydamine hydrochloride to postoperative sore throat in pediatric patients. We will spray benzydmaine hydrochloride or normal saline at oral cavity and the tip of endotracheal tube, than compare the prevalence of postoperative sore throat using smartphone application in pediatric patients.
The purpose of this study is to determine if the rapid antigen detection test for Group A streptococcal pharyngitis diagnosis might yield higher rates of false positive results in patients who have been treated for GAS pharyngitis within 28 days of the test.
A multi-center evaluation to assess the diagnostic sensitivity and specificity of the ARIES Group A Strep Assay will be established through a method comparison using prospectively collected, de-identified, clinical samples collected during the enrollment period.
