About this study

Official title: Comparative Study About The Effect Of Dexmedetomidine Vs Lignocaine On Hemodynamic Stability During Tracheal Extubation, Especially In Resource Limited Populations: A Randomized Controlled Trial

This randomized, double-blind controlled trial aims to compare the effectiveness of intravenous dexmedetomidine (0.5 µg/kg) and lignocaine (1.5 mg/kg) in attenuating hemodynamic responses during tracheal extubation in adult patients undergoing elective surgery. Tracheal extubation is commonly associated with sympathetic stimulation, leading to tachycardia, hypertension, and airway reflex responses, which may increase perioperative risk. A total of 60 ASA I patients aged 18-50 years will be randomly allocated in a 1:1 ratio; one receiving dexmedetomidine and the other lignocaine, administered intravenously 10 minutes prior to extubation. A structured proforma will be used to record hemodynamic parameters, including heart rate, systolic and diastolic blood pressure, and mean arterial pressure at baseline, before extubation, during extubation, and at 1, 3, 5, and 10 minutes post-extubation. The primary objective is to evaluate and compare the ability of these agents to attenuate hemodynamic responses during extubation. The findings of this study are expected to help identify a safe and effective strategy for smoother extubation and improved hemodynamic stability, particularly in resource-limited healthcare settings.

What is being measured

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

  1. Comparison of mean arterial pressure (MAP) during tracheal extubation

    Mean arterial pressure (MAP) measured at baseline, after drug administration, 1 minute post- extubation, 3 minutes post-extubation, 5 minutes post-extubation and 10 minutes post-extubation, comparing the effect of dexmedetomidine 0.5 microgram/kg versus lignocaine 1.5 mg/kg.

    Measured: [Baseline, after drug administration(before extubation), 1 minute, 3 minutes, 5 minutes and 10 minutes post-extubation]

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Heart rate response during tracheal extubation

    Comparison of changes in heart rate (beats per minute) between the dexmedetomidine and lignocaine groups at baseline (T0), before extubation (T1), during extubation (T2), and at 1, 3, 5, and 10 minutes after extubation (T3-T6). The outcome will be expressed as mean heart rate and mean change from baseline at each time point.

    Measured: [Baseline, after drug administration(before extubation), 1 minute, 3 minutes, 5 minutes and 10 minutes post-extubation]

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Tracheal Extubation in people with Hemodynamic Responses During Tracheal Extubation and Peri-extubation Hypertension, run by Mayo Hospital Lahore 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 1 inclusion and 1 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: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 16 Jun 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. 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?

Contact Murva Javid (+923313232475, murvajavid@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Comparison of mean arterial pressure (MAP) during tracheal extubation (time frame: [Baseline, after drug administration(before extubation), 1 minute, 3 minutes, 5 minutes and 10 minutes post-extubation]). 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 16 Jun 2026.
