"Comparision of Propofol with Dexmedetomidine and Etomidate with Dexmedetomidine for Laryngeal Mask Airway insertion in short surgical procedures"

There are many studies to evaluate the hemodynamic stability and ease of insertion in LMA insertion with ropofol and etomidate. But there is lack of evidence of effects of dexmedetomidine as a coinduction agent for LMA insertion with propofol and etomidate. Therefore, more detailed research is required to evaluate the effects of dexmedetomidine as a coinduction agent with propofoland etomidate.

Both etomidate and propofol cause pain on injection and this is one of the most common adverse effect of these drugs. Dexmedetomidine administered prior to thses drugs will also result in decrease in pain on injection due to both the drugs.
