In group I (n=35), 2% lidocaine hydrochloride (1.5 mg/kg) was slowly infused intravenously. In group II (n=40), 2% lidocaine hydrochloride (1.5 mg/kg) was dripped into the tracheostomy tube upon completion of surgery. In group III (n=40), 7% lidocaine aerosol (5 sprays, 22.5mg) was sprayed into the tracheostomy incision before tracheostomy tube placement. We recorded incidences of coughing, incisional bleeding, and hemodynamic changes when leaving the postanesthesia care unit (T1), and 6 hrs (T2) and 24 hrs (T3) after surgery.Results: The coughing scores and incisional bleeding scores were significantly lower in group II and III than that in group I at T1, T2, and T3. Group II and III had significantly lower heart rate than group I at T1 and T2. Compared with group I, mean arterial pressure decreased significantly in group II (T1 and T2) and group III (T1 and T3).Conclusion: In patients undergoing partial laryngectomy, spraying 7% lidocaine aerosol into the tracheostomy incision before placing the tracheostomy tube or instilling 2% lidocaine hydrochloride into the tracheostomy tube upon completion of surgery effectively prevented postoperative coughing, which reduced the risk of bleeding from the incision and thus facilitates postoperative rehabilitation.Keywords: lidocaine, laryngeal carcinoma, partial laryngectomy, postoperative bucking |
