Thirst Clinical Trial
Official title:
The Use of the Menthol Popsicle to Manage the Patient's Seat in the Preoperative Period: a Randomized Clinical Trial
Thirst is defined as the desire to drink water. The perception and satiation of thirst constitute an interconnected network of neuronal, physiological and hormonal mechanisms that act simultaneously. In the oropharyngeal cavity are ionic channels called Transient Receptor Potential Melastatin 8 stimulated by cold temperatures and menthol, which aid in the control and decrease of the thirst intensity for providing refreshment and satiety without, however, the necessity of fluid intake In high amounts.
