Abstract

Introduction Postoperative sore throat (POST) is a fairly common side effect of general anesthesia. The K-Y jelly is a well-known lubricant used in many medical procedures. Objective In this randomized study, we evaluated the use of throat packs soaked with K-Y jelly for POST outcomes in patients submitted to nasal surgery. Methods The present double-blinded, randomized, controlled study included 140 ASA I-II patients undergoing nasal surgery under general anesthesia. Patients received either or K-Y jelly or water-soaked X-ray detectable throat packs fully inserted into the mouth to occlude the oropharynx. Results Comparison between the studied groups regarding the severity of POST assessed by visual analog scale revealed significantly lower POST levels in the K-Y jelly group on recovery from anesthesia, and at 2, 4, and 6 hours postoperatively. Conclusions The use of K-Y jelly-soaked throat packs was associated with less severe POST after nasal surgery.

使用 K-Y 胶喉咙包治疗鼻腔手术后的喉咙痛：随机对照试验

导言术后咽喉痛（POST）是全身麻醉的一种相当常见的副作用。K-Y 果冻是一种众所周知的润滑剂，在许多医疗程序中都有使用。在这项随机研究中，我们评估了使用浸有 K-Y 果冻的咽喉包对鼻腔手术患者术后咽喉痛的治疗效果。方法本项双盲、随机对照研究纳入了 140 名在全身麻醉下接受鼻腔手术的 ASA I-II 级患者。患者接受 K-Y 果冻或用水浸透的 X 射线可探测咽喉包，并将其完全塞入口腔以闭塞口咽部。结果通过视觉模拟量表评估 POST 的严重程度，比较两组患者的情况发现，K-Y 果冻组患者在麻醉恢复时以及术后 2、4 和 6 小时的 POST 水平明显较低。结论鼻腔手术后使用 K-Y 胶冻浸泡喉咙包可降低 POST 的严重程度。
