To compare the effect of two drugs named lignocaine and ropivacaine on reducing the rise in blood pressure and heart rate that happens during begining of anaesthesia and at termination of anaesthesia.

Brief Summary

Both intubation and extubation is associated with hemodynamic changes . To reduce this response we aimed at using local anaesthetics i.e. ropivacaine 0.25% and lignocaine 2% topically .Both the drugs will be given via nebulisation prior to induction. After IEC approval 60 patients of age group 18 to 60 years belonging to ASA 1 and ASA 2 undergoing surgery under general anaesthesia will be enrolled in the double blind study.About 20 min before induction, patients will be given either of the drug via nebulisation. Anaesthesia induction and intubation  and extubation will be according to standard protocol. Hemodynamic parameters ie HR, MAP and spo2 will be recorded at various time points. Severity  of cough and time to extubation will also be recorded.
