Clinical Trial: Effect of Topical Lidocaine Spraying on the Vocal Cords Before Intubation During Robotic Surgery: a Randomized Controlled Trial

U.S., Sept. 5 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07154628) titled 'Effect of Topical Lidocaine Spraying on the Vocal Cords Before Intubation During Robotic Surgery: a Randomized Controlled Trial' on Aug. 19.

Brief Summary: Endotracheal intubation is a respiratory management technique used during general anesthesia. It is essential for certain surgical procedures as it ensures a secure airway for the patient.

However, during the placement of the endotracheal tube, the passage of the tube through the vocal cords can cause pain stimulation, leading to an increase in heart rate and blood pressure. Lidocaine reversibly blocks the conduction of nerve impulses along nerve fibers by preventing the movemen...
