A Study on Comparison between Dexmedetomidine and Magnesium Sulphate in Controlled Hypotension during Functional Endoscopic Sinus Surgery under General Anaesthesia
Journal Title: International Journal of Contemporary Medical Research - Year 2018, Vol 5, Issue 11
Abstract
Introduction: Induced hypotension to minimize bleeding during functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS) is of vital importance to the surgeon and anesthetist to decrease the risk of complications as well as procedural failure. The aim and objective of the study was to compare the efficacy of Dexmedetomidine and Magnesium Sulphate for controlled hypotension during functional endoscopic sinus surgeries. Material and Methods: Sixty-two patients were studied, randomized into two groups of 31 each. Patients were allocated into two groups: Group A (n= 31): Patients receiving Dexmedetomidine, Group B (n= 31): Patients receiving Magnesium Sulphate. Results: Average Category Scores were better with Dexmedetomidine than Magnesium Sulphate. Hemodynamic parameters during intraoperative and postoperative period were better with Dexmedetomidine than Magnesium Sulphate. Emergence time and recovery was little prolonged in dexmedetomidine group. Post-operative analgesic duration and analgesic request was similar and comparable in both the groups. Conclusion: Dexmedetomidine is effective in providing induced hypotension during Functional Endoscopic Sinus Surgery than Magnesium Sulphate.
