Comparison of Effectiveness Between the Combination of Lidocaine Sprayed at Laryngeal Inlet and on the Cuff of Endotracheal Tube Versus Intravenous Lidocaine for Reducing Cough During Extubation

• Status: Completed
• Trial end date: 2019-06-30
• Target enrollment: 0
• Participant gender: All

Summary

Coughing during extubation of endotracheal tube (ETT) is a common problem that leads to poor surgical results including hemodynamic change, rebleeding at the surgical wound and wound dehiscence. Recently, lidocaine has been introduced for reducing coughing during extubation. However, data comparing routes of lidocaine application are lacking, thus, this study compared the combination of lidocaine sprayed on laryngeal inlet and cuff of ETT versus intravenous lidocaine injection for efficacy in reducing coughing
