What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • DexmedetomidineDrug

    Also called Precedex

    Demedetomidine infusion (2mcg/ml); loading 0.5 mcg/kg for 30 min (BW/2 ml/h for 30 min), then 0.5 mcg/kg (BW/4 ml/h) until 30 minutes before finish the operation.

  • NSSOther

    Also called Narmal saline, 0.9%NaCl

    NSS infusion; loading BW/2 ml/h for 30 min, then BW/4 ml/h until 30 minutes before finish the operation.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Riker sedation agitation scores

    After finish the operation, Desflurane will be stopped. All patients will be received the neuromuscular reversal drugs and TOF ratio > 0.9. All patients will be evaluated by Riker sedation agitation score before extubation and re-evaluated again at 15 minutes after extubation.

    Riker sedation agitation scores

    1. Dangerous agitation: trying to get out of bed, pulling out tube, thrashing
    2. Very agitated: may require physical restraint, unable to calm with verbal instructions.
    3. Agitated: mild agitation and anxiety but calm down with verbal instructions.
    4. Calm and cooperative: aroused easily and follows commands
    5. Sedated: difficult to aroused, but does arouse to verbal or physical stimuli, able to follow simple commands
    6. Very sedated: does not follow commands but arouses to physical stimulation
    7. Unarousable: little or no response to noxious stimuli

    Measured: before extubation

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Fentanyl consumption

    After finish the operation, the total of fentanyl consumption during the operation will be recorded.

    Measured: during surgery
