What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

This randomized clinical trial aims to evaluate the effectiveness of two medications-hydrocortisone ointment and lidocaine solution-applied to the endotracheal tube in reducing postoperative throat pain, hoarseness, and cough following thyroid or parathyroid surgery with neuromonitoring. A total of 764 adult patients undergoing elective neck surgery at Saint-Petersburg State University Hospital will be enrolled and randomly assigned to receive either a hydrocortisone-coated or lidocaine-coated endotracheal tube. Outcomes will be assessed upon awakening from anesthesia, at 24 hours, and again at 3 days postoperatively. The findings may contribute to improving postoperative comfort and recovery for patients undergoing similar surgical procedures.
