The aim of this randomized clinical trial is to evaluate the impact of dexmedetomidine versus ketamine soaked pharyngeal packing on postoperative sore throat in functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS).
A written informed consent was taken from the patients.patients will be randomly assigned to three groups of 40 subjects each; dexmedetomidine or ketamine or saline soaked pharyngeal packs were situated under direct vision. Throat packs made of gauze with a length of 20 cm and a width of 10 cm (folded transverse four times) and medications were diluted with 20 ml normal saline. The packings were placed by the surgeon blinded to the study groups.
1-Dexmedetomidine group: 75 µg dexmedetomidine soaked pharyngeal pack (Group D) putted in the posterior pharyngeal wall after induction of anesthesia and & endotracheal tube (ETT).
2-Ketamine group: 50 mg ketamine soaked pharyngeal pack (Group K) putted in the posterior pharyngeal wall after induction of anesthesia and ETT.
3-Control group: 20 ml 0.9% saline soaked pharyngeal pack (Group C) putted in the posterior pharyngeal wall after induction of anesthesia and ETT.
