Abstract: Objective To explore the feasibility of using the gargle-bubble method(GBM)to treat laryngopharyngeal fishbone impaction. Methods A total of 531 patients with laryngopharyngeal fishbone impaction from January 2019 to December 2022 were retrospectively analysed. Patients in group A(n=263)swallowed vinegar or steamed buns by themselves, and patients in group B were treated directly with GBM(n=268). The effective rates of the two groups were compared. Results In group A, the effective rate of swallowing vinegar or steamed buns was 15.2%(n=40), and 84.8%(n=223)of patients failed and received further medical treatment. In group B, the effective rate of GBM was 98.1%(n=263), 0.8%(n=2)of patients refused to undergo GBM and 1.1%(n=3)of patients failed to treatment. Conclusion GBM can be considered as a simple and effective self-treatment for laryngopharyngeal fish bone impaction, which is worthy of popularisation and application.
