Not Applicable
Completed
Conditions
Aneurysm Cerebral
Interventions
Drug: intravenous saline
Drug: nasal saline
Registration Number
NCT03355534
Lead Sponsor
Zhihong LU
Brief Summary

Dexmedetomidine induces analgesic and sedative effects and is reported to decrease agitation during emergence after general anesthesia in various surgeries. For patients undergoing cranial aneurysm surgeries, a calm anesthesia and emergence is important. In this study, the investigatorstend to observe the effect of dexmedetomidine on maintenance and recovery of patients undergoing cranial aneurysm surgeries.
