100 ASA I and II children, aged 4 to 14 years, and scheduled for strabismus surgery, were randomly assigned to one of the following groups: group 1 (n = 50): endotracheal tube, group 2 (n = 50): laryngeal mask airway. Apart from airway management, the anaesthesiological procedures were identical in
BACKGROUND
Nausea and vomiting after ear, nose and throat (ENT) surgery is one of the most common and notable problems facing anesthesiologists in this area. This study was conducted to determine the effect of a pharyngeal pack on the severity of nausea, vomiting, and sore throat among patients
BACKGROUND
Postoperative sore throat is one of the most common complications of general anesthesia and intubation with prevalence of 18%-65% in different studies. Several risk factors including female gender, postoperative nausea and vomiting and so on have been mentioned.
OBJECTIVE

A total of 193 patients with streptococcal pharyngitis/tonsillitis received 500 mg dirithromycin once daily and 196 patients 250 mg erythromycin four times daily for ten days in a double-blind, parallel-group multicentre study. In the dirithromycin treatment group, 97 (50.3%) patients completed the
OBJECTIVE
Postoperative sore throat (POST) after general anesthesia with endotracheal intubation is a common and undesirable complication. In this study, we evaluated the combined effects of paracetamol and dexamethasone on the prevention of POST in patients after general anesthesia.
METHODS
A total
Endotracheal intubation for general anesthesia causes postoperative sore throat (POST). This study is designed to evaluate the effect of high-dose remifentanil on the incidence of POST in patients after general anesthesia.Ninety-two patients scheduled for BACKGROUND
Periodic fever, aphthous stomatitis, pharyngitis and cervical adenitis (PFAPA) syndrome has been considered as a childhood syndrome. The underlying etiology of PFAPA syndrome is unclear however, currently considered as auto-immune inflammatory disease. Recently, a few cases of adult-onset
BACKGROUND
PFAPA syndrome (Periodic Fever, Aphthous stomatitis, Pharyngitis, Adenitis) is a benign sporadic syndrome of unknown cause and an important diagnosis to consider in the child with recurrent fever and tonsillitis.
OBJECTIVE
To describe the presentation, age of onset, time until diagnosed,
The efficacy and safety of a 10-day course of ceftibuten oral suspension (9 mg/kg once daily) were compared with those of penicillin V (25 mg/kg/day in 3 divided doses) in children 3 to 18 years old treated for symptomatic pharyngitis and scarlet fever caused by group A beta-hemolytic streptococci
BACKGROUND
Cefprozil and erythromycin are acceptable alternatives to penicillin in the treatment of pharyngitis/tonsillitis due to group A beta-hemolytic streptococcus (GABHS).
OBJECTIVE
The purpose of this trial was to determine the relative efficacy and tolerability of cefprozil and erythromycin
UNASSIGNED
An updated systematic review and meta-analysis was conducted to assess the effect of prophylactic dexamethasone for tracheal intubation of general anesthesia on postoperative sore throat (POST).

Comprehensive literature search of databases for randomized controlled trials
BACKGROUND
We test the hypothesis that the frequency of postoperative nausea and vomiting is similar for the ProSeal laryngeal mask airway (LMA) and the tracheal tube.
METHODS
Two hundred consecutive female patients (ASA I-II, 18-75 yr) undergoing routine breast and gynaecological surgery were
A cross-sectional study was conducted over a 1-year period (1 January-31 December 2000) during which cases suffering from uncomplicated tonsillopharyngitis were recruited from the private and public health services in Alexandria. The objective was to determine the prevalence of group A-beta
