Primary Endpoint
To compare the effect of single pre operative dose of Dexmedetomidine and Clonidine on haemodynamic response to endotracheal intubation under general anaesthesia.

Study Overview

Brief Summary

Randomized and observational study to compare the effect of single pre-operative dose of dexmedetomidine and clonidine on haemodynamic response to endotracheal intubation under general anaesthesia. This study shall further help us to conclude a better drug for controlled attenuation of haemodynamics without any major side effects.

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

To compare the effect of single pre operative dose of Dexmedetomidine and Clonidine on haemodynamic response to endotracheal intubation under general anaesthesia.

Time Frame: To compare the effect of single pre operative dose of Dexmedetomidine and Clonidine on haemodynamic response to endotracheal intubation under general anaesthesia (Baseline parameters before administration of the study drug, after 5 minutes during the administration of the study drug, just after administration of the study drug, after induction of anaesthesia, after intubation, and at 1,3,5,10,15 minutes post intubation.

Secondary Outcomes

  • Patient haemodynamic parameters during extubation.(Post operative Sedation effect)
