Summary
Postoperative sore throat (POST) is a fairly common side effect of general anesthesia which
is caused by the mucosal injury and nerve compression associated with tracheal intubation or
laryngeal mask airway device insertion. In this randomized study, the authors evaluate the
effect of K-Y jelly-soaked nasopharyngeal packs on POST and postoperative nausea and vomiting
in patients subjected to nasal surgery.
