Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

This randomized double-blinded study is performed to compare ketamine versus lidocaine for nebulization for awake nasal fiberoptic intubation as regard efficacy and side effects.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
Phase 4

Detailed Description

Difficult airway is one of the major challenges facing anesthesiologists. This challenge is compounded when the patient is treated while awake. The additional burden is to complete this procedure comfortably thus ensuring patient cooperation which is a vital part of successful performance. Several methods have been tried in literature to facilitate awake intubation by fiberoptic bronchoscope (FOB)

This randomized double-blinded study is performed to compare ketamine versus lidocaine for nebulization for awake nasal fiberoptic intubation as regard efficacy and side effects.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Active Comparator: Ketamine group

Nebulization with ketamine

Drug: Ketamine
While in the semi-setting position, patients will receive nebulization with ketamine 3 mg/kg to be completed with normal saline solution to reach a volume of 6 ml (K group; n=30) for 15 minutes before commencing the awake fiberoptic intubation..
Other Names:
  • Ketalar
  • Active Comparator: Lidocaine group

    Nebulization with with lidocaine

    Drug: Lidocaine
    While in the semi-setting position, patients will receive nebulization with lidocaine 4% 6 ml (L group; n=30) for 15 minutes before commencing the awake fiberoptic intubation
    Other Names:
  • xylocaine
  • Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Dose of supplemental lidocaine [Intraoperative]

      Dose of supplemental lidocaine during awake fiberoptic procedure

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. Incidence of adverse events [Intraoperative]

      The incidence of adverse events related to the procedure and study drugs will be recorded

    2. Patient satisfaction score [first 24 hours]

      will be assessed against five point Likert score where (1: poor, 2: fair, 3: good, 4: very good, 5: excellent).

    3. Patient tolerability score [Intraoperative]

      Patient tolerability during the procedure will be rated as 4-point scale where 0= procedure totally intolerable with severe patient resistance (struggling/withdrawal movements). procedure partially tolerable with moderate patient resistance (restlessness/ verbal objection). procedure quiet tolerable with minimal patient resistance (just grimacing). procedure tolerable with no patient resistance. this score will be recorded at points during the intubation procedure: nasal passage, oro/hypopharynx, glottis and tube insertion.
