J Perianesth Nurs 2024:S1089-9472(24)00118-7. [PMID: 39127927 DOI: 10.1016/j.jopan.2024.03.022] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/17/2024] [Revised: 03/19/2024] [Accepted: 03/28/2024] [Indexed: 08/12/2024]
Abstract
PURPOSE Postoperative sore throat (POST) is a major complaint after day-case surgery. The objectives of this study were to investigate the risk factors for POST and develop a stratified nursing model for POST after day-case surgery. DESIGN This case-control study was conducted at Department of Anesthesiology of 1st Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University in Wenzhou, Zhejiang, China. METHODS Anesthesia records and postanesthesia care files of adult patients undergoing day-case surgery with general anesthesia were reviewed. The primary outcome was the incidence of POST at 24 hours after day-case surgery or before discharge within 24 hours. Multivariate logistics regression was used to identify risk factors for POST. A nomogram was created to predict the probability of POST after day-case surgery. FINDINGS A total of 9,312 records were retrieved from June 1, 2021 to April 30, 2022, including 8,499 files in the training group and 813 files in the validation group. One thousand five hundred and twenty-five cases in the training group experienced POST. The independent risk factors for POST included: thyroid surgery (odds ratios [OR] = 22.42, 95% confidence intervals [CI]: 18.45 to 27.25), shorter thyromental distance (OR = 1.18, 95% CI: 1.06 to 1.30), smaller neck circumference (OR = 1.09, 95% CI: 1.06 to 1.11), duration of anesthesia (OR = 1.13, 95% CI: 1.04 to 1.22), female (OR = 1.66, 95% CI: 1.41 to 1.96), age (OR = 0.99, 95% CI: 0.99 to 1.00) and the presence of bloody sputum (OR = 8.33, 95% CI: 6.53 to 10.63). A nomogram that involved five factors was established to predict the probability of POST after day-case surgery. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve in the training and validation groups was 0.77 and 0.81, respectively. The calibration curve demonstrated good consistency between the actual POST and the predicted probability. CONCLUSIONS The following variables are independently associated with POST: thyroid surgery, age approaching to 40 years old, female, shorter thyromental distance and smaller neck circumference, longer duration of anesthesia, and the presence of bloody sputum. A novel stratified nursing model is feasible for predicting the probability of POST.

[PMID: 38935009 DOI: 10.1016/j.jopan.2024.03.005] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/17/2023] [Revised: 03/07/2024] [Accepted: 03/10/2024] [Indexed: 06/28/2024]
Abstract
PURPOSE Examine the effectiveness of using intracuff lidocaine to minimize postoperative complications. DESIGN Systematic review. METHODS This review was conducted using the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses Guidelines. PubMed, CINAHL, Cochrane, Google Scholar, and gray literature databases were searched to obtain eligible studies and minimize selection bias. The Johns Hopkins Nursing Evidence-Based Practice Model was used to appraise the level of evidence for the varying studies. Only randomized controlled trials (RCT) and systematic reviews with meta-analyses of RCTs were included in the review. FINDINGS Three RCTs and three systematic reviews with meta-analyses incorporating a total of 2,337 patients were included in this review. Intracuff lidocaine (alkalinized and nonalkalinized) had the lowest incidence of postoperative sore throat in the early and late postoperative periods compared to intracuff air or intracuff saline. Furthermore, the evidence suggested that the use of intracuff lidocaine reduced postextubation cough and the incidence of hoarseness but had little or no effect on dysphagia. All studies were Level 1 and Grade A, indicating clinically solid evidence in analyzing intracuff lidocaine's effect on all outcomes measured. CONCLUSIONS The current literature suggests the feasibility of using intracuff lidocaine as an effective method to reduce the incidence of postoperative sore throat, postextubation cough, and hoarseness. The implications to practice include improving the norm of postoperative throat mucosal injuries by implementing an evidence-based practice intervention of intracuff lidocaine.

Laryngeal mask general anaesthesia versus spinal anaesthesia for promoting early recovery of cervical conisation: A randomised, controlled clinical study. Heliyon 2023; 9:e15121. [PMID: 37095968 PMCID: PMC10121804 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2023.e15121] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/12/2022] [Revised: 03/24/2023] [Accepted: 03/27/2023] [Indexed: 04/26/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Although both spinal and general anaesthesia provides good anaesthesia for cervical conization, spinal anaesthesia delays the return of lower limb movements and urinary function, whereas general anaesthesia requires the patient to be unconscious. It is unclear which anaesthetic technique is more conducive to early postoperative recovery in patients undergoing cervical conization. Patients and methods 140 patients undergoing cervical conization underwent either laryngeal mask general anaesthesia (LMA, n = 70) or spinal anaesthesia (SA, n = 70). In the LMA group, an i-gel mask was used for airway management. In the SA group, spinal anaesthesia was received with 0.75% ropivacaine (15 mg) in the L3-4 interval. The quality of recovery score (QoR-15) was the primary endpoint of the study. Secondary endpoints included incidence of adverse 24-h analgesia (NRS>3); return of lower limb activity; first bed activity and feeding; and the number of catheters removed at 6, 12 and 24 h postoperatively. Result The LMA group significantly improved QoR-15 scores (136.62 ± 11.02 vs 119.97 ± 12.75; P < 0.001); and reduced the incidence of poor analgesia (NRS >3) within 24 h postoperatively (20% vs 42.8%, P = 0.006); reduced time in bed (15.62 ± 3.83 h vs 18.27 ± 5.57 vs, P = 0.001); improved patient satisfaction (86% vs 27%; P < 0.001); and catheters removal within 24 h (70/70 vs 42/70, P < 0.001). Conclusion LMA general anaesthesia can facilitate early postoperative recovery in patients undergoing cervical conization compared with conventional spinal anaesthesia.

Abstract
In terms of antinociceptive action, the main mode of action of magnesium involves its antagonist action at the N-methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA) receptor, which prevents central sensitization and attenuates preexisting pain hypersensitivity. Given the pivotal function of NMDA receptors in pain transduction, magnesium has been investigated in a variety of pain conditions. The oral and parenteral administration of magnesium via the intravenous, intrathecal, or epidural route may alleviate pain and perioperative anesthetic and analgesic requirements. These beneficial effects of magnesium therapy have also been reported in patients with neuropathic pain, such as malignancy-related neurologic symptoms, diabetic neuropathy, postherpetic neuralgia, and chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy. In addition, magnesium treatment is reportedly able to alleviate fibromyalgia, dysmenorrhea, headaches, and acute migraine attacks. Although magnesium plays an evolving role in pain management, better understanding of the mechanism underlying its antinociceptive action and additional clinical studies is required to clarify its role as an adjuvant analgesic.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Sore throat is a common post-operative complaint which can cause significant distress and morbidity. We tested and compared the efficacy of nebulized Magnesium and Ketamine on the incidence and severity of sore throat within the first 24 hours after general anaesthesia. OBJECTIVE To compare the incidence and severity of post-operative sore throat at 2, 4, 8, 12 and 24 hours after extubation following pre-induction administration of nebulized Magnesium and Ketamine. METHODOS In this randomized controlled trial, 99 adult ASA I and II patients between the ages of 16 - 65 years were administered nebulized Ketamine 50 mg, Magnesium Sulphate 250 mg or saline for ten minutes prior to induction of general anaesthesia and orotracheal intubation. Incidence and severity of post-operative sore throat were assessed at 2, 4, 8, 12 and 24 hours post extubation. RESULTS The incidence of sore throat at 4, 8, 12 and 24 hours post tracheal extubation were significantly lower in the Magnesium (18.2%, 12.1%, 0, 0; p = 0.009, 0.006, ≤0.0001, 0.003) and Ketamine group (24.2%, 12.1%, 6.1%, 0; p = 0.041, 0.006, 0.001, 0.003) compared with the saline group (48.5%, 42.4%, 39.4%, 24.2%). Patients also had significantly less severe sore throat at 4 and 8 hours post extubation in both Magnesium and Ketamine groups (p = 0.0 11, 0.041). CONCLUSION Pre-induction nebulization of Ketamine or Magnesium can decrease the incidence and severity of sore throat in the first 24 hours after anaesthesia.

In Ear Surgeries Intravenous Dexamethasone Preoperatively Decreases Post Operative Sore Throat After Endotracheal Intubation in Adult Patients: A Prospective Randomized Control Study. Indian J Otolaryngol Head Neck Surg 2020; 73:1-5. [PMID: 33643877 DOI: 10.1007/s12070-019-01776-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/05/2019] [Accepted: 12/11/2019] [Indexed: 12/19/2022] Open
Abstract
Sore throat is commonly seen after general anaesthesia with endotracheal intubation. It is distressing for the patient as it delays return to work, increases morbidity and bad memories of the surgical period with disturbances in sleep. This double-blinded prospective randomized study was done to know the efficacy of intravenous dexamethasone in decreasing the incidence of postoperative sore throat at 1, 6 and 24 h after tracheal extubation. 60 patients aged 18-50 years scheduled for ear surgeries under general anesthesia with endotracheal intubation, were randomly allocated into two groups A and B. The patients received either intravenous 0.2 mg/kg diluted till 4 ml dexamethasone (group A, n = 30) or 4 ml normal saline (group B, n = 30) prior to induction. Endotracheal intubation was done to secure the airway. Follow up for the incidence of sore throat was done at 1, 6 and 24 h post-extubation. At 1 h, 6 h and 24 h after extubating the patient, the incidence of sore throat in the control group was significantly less in dexamethasone group compared to the control group (p < 0.039, 0.024, 0.032) respectively. Prophylactic intravenous dexamethasone in a dose of 0.2 mg/kg can reduce the incidence of postoperative sore throat after extubation with minimal side effects.

Abstract
Background and Aims: Post-operative sore throat (POST) is a common undesirable consequence of tracheal intubation. Magnesium, an N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor antagonist, has anti-nociceptive and anti-inflammatory properties, and has been found to be useful in POST prevention in various trials. We conducted this systematic review and meta-analysis to study the efficacy of topical magnesium in preventing POST in adult patients undergoing surgery under general anaesthesia with single lumen tracheal tube. Methods: Comprehensive literature search was performed in PubMed, Google Scholar, EMBASE, Scopus and the Cochrane central registers of controlled trial databases through July, 2018 and data were pooled using fixed effect modelling followed by random-effect methods (after assessing heterogeneity with fixed modelling). The primary outcome was the incidence of POST at 24 h after surgery/extubation. Comparative results were deliberated as pooled mean difference for continuous variables and Mantel–Haenszel (MH) odds ratio for dichotomous variables. Statistical analysis was done using Comprehensive Meta-Analysis-Version 3 (Biostat Inc., USA). Results: Seven trials involving 726 study participants were included in the final analysis. Incidence of POST at 24 hours was significantly lower in magnesium group (26/363) in comparison to active and non-active control group (89/363); P = 0.00- RR 0.22 (95%CI = 0.12-0.39, I2 = 0%). No significant adverse events were reported with the use of topical magnesium. Conclusion: Prophylactic use of topical magnesium before the induction of general anaesthesia seems to be an effective measure to decrease the incidence of POST.

Abstract
Background and Aims: Post-operative sore throat (POST) is often considered an inevitable consequence of tracheal intubation. This study was performed to compare the effect of inhaled budesonide suspension, administered using a metered dose inhaler, on the incidence and severity of POST. Methods: In this prospective randomised study, 46 patients undergoing laparoscopic surgeries lasting <2 h were randomly allotted into two equal groups. Group A received 200 μg budesonide inhalation suspension, using a metered dose inhaler, 10 min before intubation, and repeated 6 h after extubation. No such intervention was performed in Group B. The primary outcome was the incidence and severity of POST. Secondary outocomes included the incidence of post-operative hoarseness and cough. Pearson's Chi-square test, Fisher's exact test and Independent sample t-test were used as applicable. Results: Compared to Group B, significantly fewer patients had POST in Group A at 2, 6, 12 and 24 h (P < 0.001). Although more patients in Group B had post-operative hoarseness of voice and cough at all-time points, the difference was statistically significant only at 12 h and 24 h for post-operative hoarseness and at 2 h and 12 h for post-operative cough. Severity as well as the incidence of POST showed downward trends in both groups over time, and by 24 h no patient in Group A had sore throat. Conclusion: Inhaled budesonide suspension is effective in significantly reducing the incidence and severity of POST.
