Summary

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.

Conditions

  • Intubation Complication

Interventions

DRUG

Lidocaine spray (2%)

Spraying trachea from 2 cm above the vocal cords and 5 cm down with a straw with multiple side holes

DRUG

Muscle Relaxant (Rocuronium)

After induction of anesthesia, the participants are given 0,6 mg/kg bodyweight intravenously.

OTHER

No Muscle relaxant, no Lidocaine
