Inclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria
Catheter-free method : The patient then takes simethicone (10cc). After that, the nasal cavity is sprayed with epinephrine (1cc) and lidocaine HCL (4%, 4cc).
Catheter inesertion method: After preparation steps the same as in the 'catheter-free' method, a 14 Fr. flexible catheter is coated with 2% lidocaine HCL gel and 8% lidocaine HCL spray. After that, the catheter is inserted into the patient's nasal cavity, and maintained about 1 minute for anesthesia. A 16 Fr. catheter is prepared by the same method with as the 14Fr. catheter. After the 14 Fr. cathter has been removed from the patient's nasal cavity, the 16 Fr. catheter is inserted into the patient's nasal cavity.
Other names: Catheter-free method/Cathter insertion method
Time frame: During transnasal endoscopy, up to 1 hours
We difine the success of transnasal endoscopy as follows: the pateint underwent transnasal endoscopy without signicant complaint nor side effects.
We difine the failure of transnasal endoscopy as follows: the patient cannot tolerate insertion of the endoscope; the patient presents side effects such as epistaxis, pain, or a decrease in O2 saturation; and the endoscope cannot pass through the nasal or oral cavity.
Time frame: before, during, and after transnasal endoscopy
Blood pressure, heart rate, and O2 saturation were assessed.
Time frame: after transnasal endoscopy
Patients were asked to score how well they felt during endoscopy using a visual analog scale; they were also asked whether they would accept one-time spray method or spray+catheter method in the future if necessary.
