Brief Summary:
Tonsillectomy is considered one of the most frequent minor surgeries conducted on a day-case basis on children, and usually associated with pain and sore throat. This study aimed to include 80 children, ASA physical status I\&II aged 4-15 years, and undergoing tonsillectomy. The purpose of this study is to determine the analgesic efficacy of topically applied lidocaine and tramadol in relieving post-operative pain in children following tonsillectomy.
Detailed Description:
Pain and sore throat following tonsillectomy are typical. As a result, the issue of adequate post-tonsillectomy pain management remains a significant therapeutic obstacle. Several medications, including nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, corticosteroids and narcotics have been utilised to alleviate pain following tonsillectomy. Nevertheless, they have numerous undesirable negative consequences. NSAIDs may impede hemostasis and increase the propensity for bleeding. Opioid may result in respiratory depression, nausea, and vomiting. Consequently, the major purpose of this study is pain alleviation with minimal adverse effects.
This prospective, randomized, double-blind controlled clinical study will include 80 children, undergoing tonsillectomy, to receive either topical tramadol 5% or lidocaine 2%. Modified Visual Analogue Scale (m-VAS), bleeding, nausea, vomiting, sore throat, otalgia, fever, halitosis, and constipation will be recorded.
