Comparison between using beclometha-sone spray and fluticasone spray on endotracheal tube cuff to reduce postoperative sore throat

Sore throat is common complication after general anesthesia. The aim of this study was the effect of beclomethasone spray and fluticasone spray on reduction of sore throat and pain intensity of sore throat after general anesthesia .
In this double blinded clinical trial study, 90 patients candidate for general anesthesia were selected and divided randomly in three groups. In one group endotracheal tubecuffwhich impregnated with 200􀈝g fluticasone spray, another group with 200􀈝g beclomethasone spray and control group with normal saline. 1 hour and 24 hours after anesthesia, patients of groups followed for sore throat. Ultimately informations were analyzed statistically with kruskal-wallis and chisquare test.
During 1 hour and 24 hours after operation, frequency of sore throat of patients in fluticasone spray group and beclomethasone spray is less than control group. Also, intensity of sore throat in fluticasone spray group and beclomethasone spray is less than control group, But there was no significant statistical difference between three groups (p>0.05)
Using beclomethasone spray and fluticasone spray on endotracheal tube cuff have no significant effects on reduction of sore throat and intensity of sore throat after general anesthesia.
