Effects of Three Airway Instruments on the Incidence of Postoperative Sore Throat

NCT06515808 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 10382

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Postoperative sore throat (POST) is a common complaint after general anesthesia. POST is defined by the presence of a self-reported foreign body sensation or a painful sensation in the throat after general anesthesia. This condition may affect recovery and patient satisfaction and is associated with many factors, including intubation tools. Previous studies have reported conflicting results on POST. This retrospective cohort study, with sample size of 10,382 patients, was conducted to confirm the hypothesis that the use of video laryngoscopy (VL) is associated with a lower incidence of POST compared with direct laryngoscopy (DL).
