Journal Title: Journal of Medical Science And clinical Research - Year 2018, Vol 6, Issue 7

Abstract

Background and Aims: Smooth and safe general anaesthesia in compromised airway with abnormal anatomy, sharing of airway with surgeon, avoidance of potential laser hazards, prevention of awareness, wide awake patient after surgery with least postoperative complication are main challenges for anaesthesia for laryngeal laser surgery. Methodology: The study was conducted on thirty patients of American Society of Anesthesiologists Grade I and II of age group 18–58 years, posted for elective laryngeal laser surgeries to study the outcome of our anaesthetic management. We also emphasized on currently available measures to prevent problems of laser surgery. Results: None of the patents in our study shows complications except four patents represent difficulty in breathing postoperatively due laryngeal edema and managed accordingly. Conclusion: With use of safety measures and special techniques for anaesthesia, the problems of laryngeal laser surgery are minimized.
