Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether triamcinolone paste applied over tracheal tube is effective to reduce the incidence of postoperative sore throat after tracheal intubation.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Sore throat is a common postoperative complaint after tracheal intubation. When the surgical pain is well controlled, sore throat is often the predominant complaint, therefore it is important to prevent sore throat.
