This study tests whether a numbing mist sprayed into the throat before surgery can reduce sore throat pain children feel after having their tonsils removed. It compares two numbing medicines to see if one works better than the other.
This trial tests whether inhaling magnesium sulfate before surgery can reduce stress reactions when a breathing tube is placed. It may help patients feel more stable during laparoscopic gallbladder removal.
This trial tests two different inhaled medicines to see which one works better at preventing a sore throat after surgery. If you are having surgery with general anesthesia and a breathing tube, you might be able to join.
This study tests two gels that are applied to the breathing tube before it is placed in your airway during surgery. The goal is to see if one gel is better than the other at preventing a sore throat after you wake up from anesthesia.
