A comparison of lightwand and laryngoscopic intubation techniques in patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy

摘要: Abstract Objective To assess the effects of lightwand and laryngoscopic intubation techniques in patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC). Methods 300 ASA physical status I II patients, LC, were randomly assigned to two groups, with 150 cases each group. Patients LS group underwent endotracheal using a standard direct-suspension technique. LW intubated by transillumination lightwand. Mean arterial pressure heart rate recorded before induction, at 1, 3 5 min after intubation. The incidence sore throat, hoarseness, dysphagia was assessed twenty-four hours surgery. Results This study demonstrated no clinically significant difference cardiovascular variables between techniques. had significantly lower when used for Conclusion suggests that may decrease postoperative dysphagia, thereby potentially increasing satisfaction surgical patients. Therefore, more frequent use is recommended
