Filter by:The aim of this study is to compare intranasal dexmedetomidine versus intravenous dexmedetomidine for improving the quality of the operative field in Functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS).
The aim of this double blind randomized study will be to investigate the effect of an opioid-free anesthesia regimen with a mixture of dexmedetomidine-lidocaine-ketamine in the same syringe versus remifentanil analgesia in lumbar spine surgery
Method This single-center randomized-controlled trial is conducted to compare the efficiency of LMS with intubated general anesthesia(ITGA) and LMS with nonintubated anesthesia. The study also performed a comparative evaluation of the safety and feasibility of LMS with nonintubated general anesthesia under two different ventilation strategies. The investigators plan to enroll patients aged between 20 and 80 years who required LMS. This study has divided into three groups: the first group was LMS patients receiving general intubation general anesthesia(ITGA group). The second group consisted of LMS patients who received non-intubated general anesthesia and performed SLNB(SLNB group). The third group was LMS patients who received non-intubated general anesthesia and were given Dexmedetomidine(Dex group)
The investigators compared the effects of remifentanil and dexmedetomidine administered under general anesthesia on hemodynamics, postoperative pain, recovery, postoperative nausea, vomiting, shivering, patient's and surgeon's satisfaction in patients undergoing elective rhinoplasty. A single-center, prospective, blinded, randomized controlled trial. After the approval of the hospital ethics committee (KA22/12), fifty volunteers aged 18-65 years who underwent rhinoplasty under elective conditions accepted the study in the American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) I-III class. The patients were randomly divided into the remifentanil group (group R) and the dexmedetomidine group (group D). Group R (n=25) was initially to receive remifentanil 0.01-0.2 g/kg/min without intraoperative loading. Group D (n=25) dexmedetomidine, was initiated with a bolus of 1 mg/kg and received 0.2-0.7 g/kg per hour as an infusion during surgery.
Subthalamic nucleus (STN)-deep brain stimulation (DBS) under general anesthesia has been applied to PD patients who cannot tolerate awake surgery, but general anesthesia will affect the electrical signal in microelectrode recording (MER) to some degree. This study is a prospective randomized controlled, noninferiority study, open label, endpoint outcome evaluator blinded, two-arm study. Parkinson's disease patients undergoing STN-DBS are randomly divided into a conscious sedation group (dexmedetomidine) and a general anesthesia group (desflurane). Normalized root mean square (NRMS) is used to compare the difference of neuronal activity between the two groups. The primary outcome is the percentage of high NRMS recorded by the MER signal (with the average NRMS recorded by MER after entering the STN greater than 2.0). The secondary outcomes are the NRMS, length of the STN, number of MER tracks, and differences in clinical outcomes 6 months after the operation.
This study was conducted to compare the effects of intrathecal versus intravenous dexmedetomidine administration in patients undergoing Transurethral resection of the prostate under spinal anesthesia.
Chronic postsurgical pain (CPSP) has an incidence of 46% in patients after breast cancer surgery, which seriously affects patients' physiological and psychological function, as well as quality of life. Acute pain is an independent risk factor for persistent pain after surgery. Erector spinae plane block (ESPB) provided excellent perioperative analgesia in patients undergoing breast surgery. Dexmedetomidine as an adjuvant of local anesthetics prolongs the duration of peripheral nerve block and decreases the requirements of postoperative analgesia. The investigators hypothesize that, for breast cancer patients undergoing mastectomy, ESPB (with a combination of 0.5% ropivacaine 35 ml and dexmedetomidine 1 microgram/kg) can reduce the occurrence of CPSP. The purpose of this randomized controlled trial is to investigate the impact of ESPB with adjuvant dexmedetomidine on the incidence of CPSP in breast cancer patients after mastectomy. We will also observe the impact of ESPB on long-term survival in these patients.
Study will be conducted in Pediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU) in King Abdullah Specialist Children Hospital (KASCH), National Guard Health Affairs, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Total of 430 patients will participate to assess the safety and efficacy of prolonged Dexmedetomidine use beyond 24 hours in pediatric Intensive Care Unite.
The purpose of the study is to compare the onset and duration of sensory and motor block after spinal anesthesia between intrathecal bupivacaine alone vs intrathecal bupivacaine and dexmedetomidine combination.
A prospective, randomized controlled study was conducted to compare the effects of esketamine combined with dexmedetomidine in the sedation and analgesia treatment of mechanically ventilated patients in the ICU on the time to awaken, time to extubation, time to mechanical ventilation, time in the ICU, and on delirium.
