Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
To evaluate efficacy of nebulized ketamine in reducing incidence and severity post-operative sore throat in adult patients undergoing general anesthesiaTimepoint: The incidence and severity of sore throat will be recorded at 2,4,6, 12 and 24 hours post operatively, measured on 4 points scale 0-3

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
1-to observe for side effects like cough,nausea,vomiting,hallucination 2-to observe relation between gender and duration of surgery to incidence of post operative sore throat 3- to compare hemodynamics between both groupsTimepoint: pre nebulisation,5 mins post nebulisation,at time of induction,10 mins post-induction,post-extubation. and 0,2,4,6,12,24 hourly
