DOI: https://doi.org/POST, or postoperative sore throat, is a typical ailment after general anesthesia-induced endotracheal intubation. In this study, the incidence and severity of POST in patients having general anaesthesia with air versus lignocaine endotracheal cuff inflation will be compared.
Material and Methods: Two groups of 60 patients were randomly allocated to either Group A (lignocaine-inflated endotracheal cuff) or Group B (air-inflated endotracheal cuff).
Conclusion: The findings imply that lignocaine is beneficial in reducing post-intubation pain since the group experienced a considerably decreased incidence of sore throat.
