Dexmedetomidine mist for stable breathing tube placement
Part of Pain clinical trials.
This trial tests if a medication called dexmedetomidine (given as a mist through a nebulizer) can help keep your heart rate and blood pressure steady when a breathing tube is placed for surgery. It may be an option for people having planned surgery who want a smoother experience.

This study tests if dexmedetomidine can help prevent dangerous blood pressure spikes during breathing tube placement for surgery in patients with high blood pressure. It is for older adults (over 60) who have been managing their hypertension for at least 6 months.
This trial tests whether giving a single dose of dexmedetomidine (a medicine that helps calm the body's stress response) before surgery can reduce the stress on your heart and blood pressure when a breathing tube is placed. It may help you recover more smoothly.
This study tests two different medications—dexmedetomidine and lignocaine—to see which one better keeps your heart rate and blood pressure stable when doctors remove your breathing tube after surgery. The goal is to find the safest, most affordable approach, especially in hospitals with limited resources.
This trial tests whether dexmedetomidine or lignocaine better prevents dangerous heart-rate and blood-pressure changes when a breathing tube is placed during heart surgery. If you're having cardiac surgery and are at high risk for heart complications, this study may help protect your heart during the procedure.
This trial tests whether a sedative called dexmedetomidine can reduce agitation in ICU patients when they are being weaned off a breathing tube. If you experience restlessness or agitation during the weaning process, this medication might help you stay calm.
This trial tests a medicated mist (nebulized dexmedetomidine) given before a C-section under general anesthesia. It aims to prevent a dangerous spike in blood pressure during the breathing tube placement, which is common in severe preeclampsia.
