Brief Summary

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

The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of ultrasound guided technique for block of internal branch of superior laryngeal nerve in surgical patient in comparison to blind anatomical technique.

Detailed Description

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

Airway anesthesia is pivotal for successful awake intubation provided either topically or by nerves blocks. Airway blocks are technically harder to perform with more complications possibilities. However, in experienced hands, they can be useful as they provide better intubating conditions.
