Effects of Lidocaine Infusion on Quality of Recovery and Agitation After Functional Endoscopic Sinus Surgery

• Status: Recruiting
• Trial end date: 2020-10-20
• Target enrollment: 0
• Participant gender: All

Summary

The essential anesthesia requirements for FESS include airway management, considerations for facilitating surgical access, provision of a clear and still surgical field for precision surgery, assuring quick and non-stimulating emergence from anesthesia, and fast-tracking patients for discharge. Postoperative agitation, although short-lived, is potentially harmful to both patients and recovery room staff, it has a potential for self-injury by removing intravenous catheters, tubing, oxygen masks and nasal packs. Furthermore, very agitated patients can pose an immediate danger to operating theatre staff.
