Interventional endoscopy procedures are challenging for anaesthesiologists due to the various patient, procedural, logistic, and position-related issues. Complex endoscopic procedures like biliary interventions and endoscopic myotomy necessitate longer procedural duration. The mode of anaesthesia is usually deep sedation without any definitive airway device and is frequently associated with hypoxemia events which can be catastrophic.

Objective: To compare the vocal symptomatology of professors from a federal university who engaged in distance, hybrid, and face-to-face teaching during and after the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic period.
Method: The study included 40 university professors, 20 men and 20 women, whose symptomatology was monitored at three time points: during the distance teaching period due to social isolation caused by COVID-19, in hybrid teaching (partial return), and upon returning to face-to-face teaching, which required the use of face masks and posed contamination risks.
Results: The hybrid phase presented the highest absence of vocal complaints/discomfort, and most participants did not need to be reassigned due to vocal problems.
