Filter by:Post-operative sore throat (POST) ranks as the 8th most undesirable effect in the post-operative period and is noted by up to 90% of patients receiving an endotracheal tube. [1-3] This study aims to show that a simple 5 minute preoperative and intraoperative osteopathic medical manipulation protocol can decrease the severity and or the incidence of post-operative sore throat thereby decreasing morbidity and increasing patient satisfaction and return to daily life.
Investigators assess and compare postoperative sore throat and hoarseness in the group maintaining moderate relaxation and deep relaxation during operation.
Prospective, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicentre clinical trial to assess the efficacy and tolerability of natural seawater based throat spray among adult patients with acute sore throat.
Evaluate the necessity to treat with antibiotics GAS pharyngitis in children in Switzerland. The null hypothesis is that antibiotic treatment is not necessary for GAS pharyngitis in this population.
In the present study, The investigators investigated the effect of surgical methods on the recovery of patients after robotic surgery and open thyroidectomy
When a surgical procedure is performed under general anesthesia, the Airways are often secured With an endotracheal tube. Some patients experience sore throat thereafter. Studies have shown a reduction of these side effects when by use of muscle relaxants or a lidocain spray prior to the intubation. At Ostfold Hospital Trust, the investigators use one of the two methods or nothing. These methods will be studied systematically. Heart rate and blood pressure rise during the intubation procedure. The investigators will also study the differences between the groups.
Periodic Fever, Aphthous stomatitis, Pharyngitis and cervical Adenitis (PFAPA) is one of the most common, least explored periodic fever syndrome in childhood. This study aims to investigate whether a single dose of an interleukin beta (IL-1) antagonist, Canakinumab will be able to abort PFAPA flares in patients who experience a flare in an average of 2 weeks or less. This will be a single arm open label pilot study. 10 patients will be recruited from 1 center (Pediatric rheumatology unit -Schneider children's medical center of Israel). Patients in ages 2-10 years old who are diagnosed with PFAPA according to clinical criteria at least 3 months prior to enrollment and who are under regular care for this disease (single dose of glucocorticoids during flare) and who suffer from more than 4 PFAPA flares for the last 2 months, will be screened for this study. In the second documented flare, patients will be enrolled to receive a single dose of subcutaneous (SC) Canakinumab 4 mg/kg. The primary outcome is defined as - 50% reduction in PFAPA flares for the next 2 consecutive months as reported by the patient (use of diary) and documented by the patient primary care physician and/ or the researcher in a monthly follow up visits. Secondary outcome measure are define as time to flare (days) and Parent/patient quality of life assessment measured by 100mm visual analog scale (VAS).
Laryngeal mask airway (LMA) is widely used in children.The appropriate time to remove laryngeal mask airway is still inconclusive.Sore throat is one of common complications after general anesthesia. Sometimes postoperative sore throat affects patients' satisfaction and daily activities. It can be correlated with dysphagia and may limit oral intake especially in children.The incidence of postoperative sore throat after laryngeal mask airway insertion varies from 5.8-34% in adult(13) and 17.5% in pediatric.Somehow, almost the studies of postoperative sore throat after laryngeal mask airway removal were done in awake state. Our study object to test that post operative sore throat after LMA removal in deep anesthetized children is lower than awake children.
We investigate the potential benefits of ultrasound-driven lidocaine inhalation immediately before induction.
Ibuprofen (also known as Advil or Motrin) is a medication that is known to reduce pain. It is also known that ibuprofen levels in the blood rise higher and faster if the medication is taken in liquid suspension. This study will attempt to determine if ibuprofen suspended in a liquid works to relieve sore throat pain faster than pills of ibuprofen. It will also determine whether patients with sore throat prefer to take pill or liquid form of the medication.
