Postoperative sore throat (POST) is a frequent and distressing complication after general anesthesia with endotracheal intubation, particularly in nasal surgery for example, functional endoscopic sinus surgery, septoplasty, or septo-rhinoplasty, where pharyngeal packing is routine. While pharyngeal packs may reduce blood ingestion, they may exacerbate POST, warranting effective pharmacologic prophylaxis. This study assesses the efficacy of dexamethasone-soaked pharyngeal packs in reducing incidence of POST in patients undergoing elective septoplasty surgeries.
