About this study

Official title: Comparison of Nebulised Dexmedetomidine Versus Nebulised Saline Preoperatively To Attenuate Hemodynamic Response to Laryngoscopy and Endotracheal Intubation: A Randomised Control Trial

BLUNTING OF HEMODYNAMIC RESPONSE WILL BE OBSERVED IN PATIENTS NEBULISED WITH DEXMEDETOMIDINE AND NORMAL SALINE.

Read the detailed description

ONE GROUP OF PTS WILL BE NEBULISED WITH DEXMEDETOMIDINE AND OTHER WITH NORMAL SALINE AND WILL BE OBSERVED DURING AND AFTER INTUBATION FOR ATTENUATION OF HEMODYNAMIC RESPONSE FOR LYRANGOSCOPY AND ENDOTRACHEAL INTUBATION

Being tested
Dexmeditomidine, Normal Saline (0.9% Sodium Chloride)

What participants receive

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

  • DexmeditomidineDrug

    dexmeditomidine 1mcg/kg diluted in 5ml 0.9% sodium chloride, administered via nebulizer over 5 minutes, 30 minutes prior to anesthetic induction .

  • Normal Saline (0.9% Sodium Chloride)Drug

    normal saline 5 ml administered via nebulizer over 5 minutes, 30 minutes prior to anesthetic induction.

What is being measured

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

  1. change in mean artirial pressure and heart rate after lyrangoscopy and intubation

    hemodynamic stress response measured as change in mean arterial pressure and heart rate from baseline. MAP and HR will be recorded at baseline T0, 1 minute post intubation T1 ans 3 minute post intubation T3. Significant stress response is defined as rise in MAP nad HR more than 10% of baseline at 3 minutes post intubation.

    Measured: baseline, 1 minute and 3 minute post intubation

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Dexmeditomidine and Normal Saline (0.9% Sodium Chloride) in people with HEMODYNAMIC RESPONSETO LYRANGOSCOPY AND ENDOTRACHEAL INTUBATION, run by Shaheed Mohtarma Benazir Bhutto Institue of Trauma at 1 site in Pakistan.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 6 inclusion and 6 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: under way, not looking for participants, as of the sponsor's last update on 19 May 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Pakistan. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

change in mean artirial pressure and heart rate after lyrangoscopy and intubation (time frame: baseline, 1 minute and 3 minute post intubation). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 19 May 2026.
