Effect of Chewing Gum and Mouthwash Before Operation on Sore Throat After General Anesthesia With...

Postoperative Sore Throat

Postoperative sore throat (POST) is an important problem after general anaesthesia. We assessed whether chewing gum preoperatively or mouthwash can reduce the incidence of POST after general anaesthesia administered via a streamlined liner of the pharyngeal airway (SLIPA).

Comparison of Licorice Versus Sugar-water Gargle for Prevention of Postoperative Sore Throat and...

Sore Throat

The investigators propose to test the hypothesis that pre-operative gargling with licorice reduces the incidence of sore throat in rest after intubation with double-lumen endotracheal tubes compared to placebo after surgery through the first four post-extubation hours.

Effect of Intravenous Dynastat on Postoperative Sore Throat

Sore ThroatPostoperative Complications

A postoperative sore throat (POST) after tracheal intubation is one of the most common postoperative problems causing dissatisfaction to participants, including sore throat, dry throat, cough, sputum, hoarseness and even dysphagia. Both nonpharmacological and pharmacological measures have been attempted to alleviate the incidence and severity of POST with variable success. Airway inflammation may be important in the pathogenesis of these symptoms in intubated participants but however, there was still no study to investigate the effect of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) for the prevention of POST. So, the investigators' study will be the first one to investigate if perioperatively intravenous (IV) Dynastat injection can be used as a new indication for POST prevention.

Thermographic Characteristics of Sore Throat by Thermographic Camera

FeverSore Throat

Thermographic cameras are used to determine temperature and temperature differences. Attempts have been made to use the thermographic camera as a diagnostic tool in clinical practice. Thermographic cameras have been approved by the FDA in the diagnosis of breast cancer. The camera absorbs infrared radiation which is discharged from the tissue and than translates it to a digital data or a photograph. The camera does not radiate and direct contact with the patient is not needed. The safety is similar to a regular optic camera. No study on thermographic characteristics of inflammation of organs has been published. The purpose of this study is to demonstrate and document these characteristics of inflammation. The correlation between the thermographic imaging and the clinical diagnosis, using routine methods, will be analyzed. The differences of thermographic imaging between an inflamed organ of a subject to a non inflamed same organ of a normal control will also be analyzed. The management of the patient will be by standard practice and will not be influenced by the thermographic camera image and the study outcome.
