Article Synopsis
- - The study investigates the effects of using alkalinized lignocaine 2% versus normal saline to fill endotracheal tube (ETT) cuffs during general anesthesia, aiming to reduce post-intubation complications like sore throat and nausea.
- - High-volume low-pressure cuffs can cause damage to tracheal mucosa due to increased pressure from gas diffusion, and using lignocaine may help alleviate this irritation due to its local anesthetic properties.
- - The research involved a randomized, double-blind trial with 120 participants, focusing on the benefits of lignocaine inflation in reducing post-intubation morbidities compared to saline.
