Official Title: Retrospective Investigation of the Effects of Different Uses of Lidocaine in the Prevention of Hemodynamic Response to Laryngoscopy and Endotracheal Intubation
Brief Summary:
Direct laryngoscopy and endotracheal intubation procedure stimulate the sympathetic nervous system, causing catecholamine release into the circulation and consequently hemodynamic changes.There are many studies showing that lidocaine is used intravenously to suppress the sympathetic response to laryngoscopy and endotracheal intubation.Nebulized lidocaine is often used to provide upper airway local anesthesia in fiberoptic guided awake intubation.In this study, the researchers aimed to compare the results of using…
