Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Change of QTc intervalT1 (at rest), T2 (5 min after dexmedetomidine infusion), T3 (just before intubation), T4(1 min after intubation), T5(2 min after intubation), T6(3min after intubation)

T1- baseline, T2- to evaluate the effect of dexmedetomidine on QTc interval, T3- to evaluate QTc interval just before intubation, T4,5,6 - to evaluate QTc interval after intubation
