DrugThe study compares the role of Labetalol infusion versus Dexmedetomidine infusion in hypotensive anesthesia in patients having ear, nose and throat surgeries
Treatment groups
Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Mean arterial blood pressure changes before induction of anesthesia & every 15 min throughout deliberate hypotension
Secondary outcomes
Heart rate changes before induction of anesthesia and every 15 min
Surgical site oligaemia will be evaluated by the surgeons by rating the amount of bleeding according to Modena bleeding score that provides five different levels (from "Grade 1 - no bleeding" to "Grade 5")
Surgeon satisfaction At the end of the surgery will be evaluated by one surgeon and recorded according to a 5-point Likert scale (5: excellent, 4: Good, 3: Satisfactory, 2: Poor, 1: Very poor)
Total anesthetic consumption including both inhalational anesthetic consumption and narcotics consumption.
