Abstract
Introduction
Microlaryngeal surgery (MLS) is the commonest endoscopic laryngeal procedure. Insertion of suspension laryngoscopy may lead to hemodynamic response such as rise in heart rate and blood pressure. This hemodynamic instability may cause myocardial ischemia, infarction, arrhythmia, rise of intraocular and intracranial pressure. This study was conducted to compare superior laryngeal nerve block and lignocaine nebulisation in microlaryngeal procedures to circumvent these complications.
Methodology
In this study 46 patients were enrolled in total, out of which 23 patients in Group A received 5 ml of 4 % lignocaine nebulization and Group B patients received superior laryngeal nerve block with 2 % lignocaine. The principal outcome evaluated was the hemodynamic stress response, specifically the alteration in heart rate. The secondary outcomes examined included systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), postoperative sore throat, cough, hoarseness of voice, as well as postoperative laryngospasm and desaturation
Results
In this study significantly lower heart rates were recorded in Group B when compared to that of Group A at 0, 3,5,9 min with a p value<0. 05. Similarly, significantly lower Systolic and diastolic blood pressures were observed in Group B patients when compared to that of Group A (p value<0 0.05). In this study, there is a significantly lower incidence of complications like sore throat and cough in Group B patients than that of Group A patients (P value < 0.01).
Conclusion
Ultrasound guided superior laryngeal nerve block was found to be more effective than lignocaine nebulization to prevent hemodynamic stress response and post operative complications following micro laryngeal surgery.
期刊介绍:
The objective of this new online journal is to serve as a multidisciplinary, peer-reviewed source of information related to the administrative, economic, operational, safety, and quality aspects of the ambulatory and in-patient operating room and interventional procedural processes. The journal will provide high-quality information and research findings on operational and system-based approaches to ensure safe, coordinated, and high-value periprocedural care. With the current focus on value in health care it is essential that there is a venue for researchers to publish articles on quality improvement process initiatives, process flow modeling, information management, efficient design, cost improvement, use of novel technologies, and management.
