AI Article Synopsis
- A one-year placebo-controlled trial assessed the effectiveness of intravenous lidocaine in preventing post-extubation laryngospasm in children (3 months to 6 years) after cleft palate surgeries.
- Children were divided into two groups: one received saline (placebo) and the other received lidocaine (1.5 mg/kg).
- Results showed a 29.9% reduction in laryngospasm and an 18.92% reduction in coughing for those who received lidocaine, indicating its effectiveness in this scenario.
Article Abstract
A one-year randomized placebo-controlled trial was conducted to study the effectiveness of intravenous lidocaine in the prevention of post extubation laryngospasm in children, following cleft palate surgeries. Children of age three months to six years were randomly assigned into two groups. Group P placebo (saline) and Group L (Lidocaine), 1.5 mg/kg. A sample size of 74 with n = 37 in each group was selected. The anaesthetic procedure was standardized. At the end of the procedure, three minutes after reversal, the study drug, that is, intravenous lidocaine (1.5 mg/kg) or placebo (saline) was administered and two minutes later the child was extubated. Following extubation for 10 minutes, the haemodynamic parameters, that is, pulse, blood pressure, oxygen saturation, severity of coughing, and laryngospasm were noted. The total reduction of laryngospasm and coughing was 29.9% and 18.92% with IV lidocaine. Significant alterations in haemodynamics and oxygen saturation were noted for 10 minutes, following extubation. Hence, intravenous lidocaine 1.5 mg/kg was effective in the prevention of post extubation laryngospasm in children undergoing cleft palate surgeries.

Objectives: Elderly frailty patients are at particular risk of sedation-related adverse events (SRAEs) during sedation. This study aimed to assess whether intravenous lidocaine could reduce the incidence of SRAEs in elderly frailty patients undergoing endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP).
Methods: A total of 210 elderly frailty patients scheduled for ERCP were randomly divided into two groups: lidocaine and control.

Background And Aims: Enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) has been applied in various laparoscopic procedures. Intravenous lidocaine (IVL) infusion is used for laparoscopic procedures as a part of ERAS protocols. The study aimed to evaluate the role of IVL infusion in enhanced bowel recovery after laparoscopic renal surgeries.

Background And Aims: Nasotracheal intubation evokes greater hemodynamic responses than oral intubation. We compared the heart rate (HR) and mean arterial pressure (MAP) responses following nasal intubation during opioid-free anesthesia (OFA) using intravenous lignocaine versus standard regimen using morphine in cancer patients undergoing tumor resection.
Material And Methods: This randomized, double-blinded study was conducted in 84 adults.

Despite significant advances in endovascular techniques, open abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) repair continues to play an important role in vascular surgery. Many studies have described the advantages of epidural anesthesia combined with general anesthesia over general anesthesia alone as an analgesic method for open AAA repair. Several recent guidelines have recommended epidural anesthesia as the first option for pain management in open AAA repair.
