The Evaluation of the Effect of Preoperatively Applied Throat Lozenge

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

Purpose:The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of preoperative throat lozenge on pain relief in the postoperative period of the mucosal damage caused by intubation in patients who underwent operations in the head and neck region under general anesthesia. Methods: 60 patients were included in this study who were hospitalized in the inpatient service of the Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery department, This study was single-blind and performed by the same practitioner. Throat lozenge (strepsilis) was given to patients 30 minutes before the operation (the dissolution rate of the lozenge was proven to be 6-9 minutes).The postoperative sore throat was evaluated by VAS scale (0=no pain, 10=unbearable pain), and cough and hoarseness were evaluated with a four-point Likert scale (0=absent, 3=severe) at 1, 4, 6, 12, and 24 hours.

Clinical Trial Description

Before the operation, blood sugar, urea, creatinine, electrolytes, prothrombin time, active partial thromboplastin time, and liver enzyme levels were determined in all patients. Hemoglobin and hematocrit determinations were made. Electrocardiography and chest radiographs were taken. Patients whose biochemical tests were within normal limits were included in our study. The study was single-blind and performed by the same practitioner. Throat lozenge (strepsilis) was given to 30 patients, and sugar dragee in the same size and shape was given to 30 patients 30 minutes before the operation (the dissolution rate of the lozenge was proven to be 6-9 minutes). In order not to cause any complications, sugar patients were sucked and told not to chew. Before the initiation of general anesthesia, height, weight, intubation time, mallampati score and ASA classification, the name of the operation, the start and end time of the operation, smoking, tube number, and whether spasms occurred were recorded. Patients taken to the service in the postoperative period were rested by wearing an oxygen mask. Postoperative sore throat VAS scale (0 = no pain, 10 = unbearable pain), cough, and hoarseness were assessed at 1, 4, 6, 12, and 24 hours with a four-point Likert scale (0 = absent, 3 = severe). ;

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.
