Medication comparison for stable breathing during anesthesia recovery
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study compares two medications, dexmedetomidine and lignocaine, to see which one better keeps your heart rate and blood pressure stable when the breathing tube is removed after surgery. It aims to find a safe and effective option, especially in settings with limited resources.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study compares two medications, dexmedetomidine and lignocaine, to see which works better for pain management during and after laparoscopic gallbladder removal. It may help improve comfort and recovery for people having this surgery.
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 study tests two medicines given before surgery to see which one better controls blood pressure and heart rate during the start of anesthesia. It may help people with high blood pressure have a safer and smoother experience when they are put to sleep for surgery.
This trial compares two medicines (dexmedetomidine and labetalol) to see which one better controls stress on the airway during brain surgery in people with high blood pressure. The goal is to find a safer way to manage your heart rate and blood pressure while you are under anesthesia.
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.
