Comparison of the Efficacy of Clonidine and Dexemedetomidine Infusions Administered Preoperatively for Attenuation of the Hemodynamic Response Following Laryngoscopy and Endotracheal Intubation in a Placebo-Controlled Study
Journal Title: Journal of Medical Science And clinical Research - Year 2017, Vol 5, Issue 7
Abstract
It is well established that laryngoscopy and endotracheal intubation invariably cause haemodynamic changes associated with increased heart rate, increased blood pressure and occasional disturbance in cardiac rhythm. These hemodynamic alterations are hazardous to the patients with hypertension, myocardial insufficiency or cerebrovascular disease. In patients with coronary artery disease it may lead to myocardial ischaemia and dysrhythmia. In hypertensive patients these exaggerated haemodynamic responses may lead to left ventricular failure, pulmonary oedema and congestive cardiac failure.
