About this study

Official title: Effect of Ultrasound-Guided Internal Superior Laryngeal Nerve Block on Sore Throat After Intubation by Double-Lumen Bronchial Tube for Thoracoscopic Surgery

investigate the effectiveness and safety of ultrasound-guided bilateral internal branch of the SLN (iSLN) block for alleviating POST immediately after the operation.

Being tested
internal superior laryngeal nerve block, Lidocaine 2% Injectable Solution, Bupivacaine 0.5% Injectable Solution

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • internal superior laryngeal nerve blockProcedure or surgery

    A linear 4- to 12-MHz ultrasound probe will be placed in the oblique parasagittal plane to obtain an image of the hyoid bone and the thyroid cartilage. The probe will be kept parasagitally, and the following structures will be identified anteriorly to posteriorly: omohyoid muscle, sternohyoid muscle, thyrohyoid muscle, thyrohyoid membrane, superior laryngeal artery, and pre-epiglottis space.

    After identifying the local anatomic structure, a needle will be inserted out-plane from anterior to posterior. The muscles above the thyrohyoid membrane will be penetrated and hydrodissected; local anesthetic will be injected into the superior laryngeal nerve space. The superior laryngeal nerve space will be located between the hyoid bone (cephalad) and the thyroid cartilage (caudal) and delimited between the thyrohyoid muscle, anteriorly, and the thyrohyoid membrane and the pre-epiglottis space, posteriorly

  • Lidocaine 2% Injectable SolutionDrug

    0.5 ml will be injected

  • Bupivacaine 0.5% Injectable SolutionDrug

    1.5 ml will be injected

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing internal superior laryngeal nerve block, Lidocaine 2% Injectable Solution and Bupivacaine 0.5% Injectable Solution in people with Postoperative Sore Throat, run by Menoufia University at 1 site in Egypt.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 9 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 24 Apr 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Egypt. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact mostafa S mansour, MD (00201225484055, mostafa.said@med.menofia.edu.eg), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

the pain classification of postoperative sore throat (time frame: from immediate postoperative till 24 hours postoperative). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?
