Clinical Trial Summary

The aim of this study is to compare the efficacy of airway topical anesthesia with nebulization to the spray-as-you-go technique using dexmedetomidine and lidocaine mixture to achieve upper airway anesthesia in TMJ ankylosis patients.


Clinical Trial Description

Awake fiber-optic intubation (AFOI) has become the accepted gold standard technique for management of recognized difficult airway as the larynx remains in a posterior position and the patient is able to protect the airway from soiling and can maintain the airway patency as well as spontaneous breathing efforts. Awake intubation requires that the patient remains calm and cooperative and is provided with sufficient anxiolysis, analgesia, and topical anesthesia without compromising the airway. Gag reflex, cough, and laryngospasm can be upsetting during the process. Awake patients never permit airway instrumentation without airway anesthesia. Therefore, effective airway anesthesia is required for airway instrumentation and patient comfort. For awake intubation, topical airway anesthesia can be provided either by using fiberoptic bronchoscope (FOB) to apply local anaesethic to the airway by a "spray-as-you-go" technique or nebulizing the patient for about 10-15 min. ;
