Summary

Flexible bronchoscopy is a commonly performed procedure and is usually performed transnasally. The optimal topical anesthesia regimen for bronchoscopy is investigational. Topical Vasoconstrictors like xylometazoline produce decongestion of nasal mucosa and may make insertion of bronchoscope easier. The addition of topical vasoconstrictor to lignocaine may have advantage in terms of patient comfort and for reducing local complications. Although evaluated in the settings of nasal endoscopy and nasotracheal intubation, randomized trials on the role of topical vasoconstrictors during flexible bronchoscopy are not available. The aim of this randomized trial is to study the effect of topical nasal xylometazoline administration during flexible bronchoscopy.
