A comparative study on airway morbidity with air, saline, and alkalinized lidocaine used for inflation of tracheal tube cuffs
Filling the tracheal tube cuff with alkalinized lidocaine resulted in a lesser incidence of undesirable events post-intubation, which contributed to overall airway morbidity.
