Medication comparison for lowering blood pressure during sinus surgery
Treatments studied
Part of Ear, nose & throat, Pain clinical trials.
This study compares two different medicines to lower blood pressure during sinus surgery, which helps reduce bleeding and improve the view for the surgeon. It might help you if you are having sinus surgery and want a safer, more comfortable procedure with less bleeding.

This trial compares two medications, labetalol and dexmedetomidine, given as infusions to lower blood pressure during ear, nose, and throat surgeries. The goal is to find which drug works better and safer for patients.
This trial compares two medicines, lidocaine and magnesium, given through an IV during sinus surgery to see which one works better at reducing the need for fentanyl, a strong painkiller. The goal is to find a way to manage pain with fewer side effects.
This trial is testing whether packing the nose with one of three medications (dexmedetomidine, midazolam, or bupivacaine) during functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS) can improve the surgeon's view during the procedure. It may help patients by reducing bleeding and making the surgery smoother.
This trial tests if a low dose of magnesium sulfate can help during nose or sinus surgery. It may reduce pain or side effects.
This trial tests whether giving small doses of ephedrine during surgery can prevent dangerously low blood pressure in adults undergoing major abdominal surgery. It may help patients who are at risk for this complication.
This trial tests two inhaled medicines, dexmedetomidine and magnesium sulfate, to see which is better at preventing agitation and restlessness as patients wake up from functional endoscopic sinus surgery. It may help you recover more calmly.
