Tracheal tubes lubricated with water to reduce sore throat after intubation: A randomized non-inferiority trial. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2018 BACKGROUND:Sore throat is common after tracheal intubation. Water can be used to lubricate tracheal tubes, but its benefit has not been validated. We thus did a randomised non-inferiority trial to test the hypothesis that a tube lubricated with water ...
