Özet

Nasotracheal intubation offers better view and surgical area in head, neck and maxillofacial surgery. However, widespread use of this technique is restricted by concerns on the risk of damage. In this prospective and double-blinded study, nasotracheal intubation was performed in 45 adult patients who underwent maxillofacial surgery. The incidence of nasal damage and hemorrhage were investigated. There was no nasal damage or severe hemorrhage in any patient. There was no correlation between nasal injury and duration of intubation. Bleeding frequency was raised by intubation attend frequency but there was no relation between intubation attend frequency and mucosal injury. Results of this study suggest that performing nasal preparation and the use of a soft tube reduces the incidence of hemorrhage and mucosal damage.
