Summary

Flexible bronchoscopy is common procedure used in the diagnosis and treatment of a variety of tracheobronchial diseases. During routine diagnostic flexible bronchoscopy, the most distressing symptom experienced by the patients is a cough, and control of a cough is vital for a successful procedure. The investigators hypothesized that either nebulized lignocaine or lignocaine spray given alone prior to flexible bronchoscopy for inducing topical anesthesia will have similar efficacy compared to the combination of the two agents.

Conditions

  • Patients With Indication for Flexible Bronchoscopy

Interventions

DRUG

Nebulized Lignocaine

2.5 ml of 4% lignocaine will be administered via nebulization prior to bronchoscopy

DRUG

Lignocaine spray

10 puffs of 10% (10mg/puff) lignocaine spray will be sprayed at 10 seconds intervals into the pharynx immediately prior to bronchoscopy

DRUG

Combined spray and nebulization

Combination of 2.5 ml of 4% lignocaine via nebulization prior to bronchoscopy and 2 puffs of 10% (10mg/puff) lignocaine spray sprayed at 10 seconds intervals into the pharynx immediately prior to bronchoscopy
