About this trial
This randomized double-blind controlled clinical trial aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of combining Dexmedetomidine with Desflurane in patients undergoing elective laparoscopic colectomy. The study will assess whether the combination can reduce Desflurane consumption, improve intraoperative hemodynamic stability, and enhance postoperative recovery compared to Desflurane alone.
