Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

Hypotensive anaesthesia is the deliberate lowering of a patient's blood pressure during surgery. It is necessary during ear, nose and throat surgery for drying surgical field, ease in operation procedure and shortening of the duration of surgery. Labetalol is a unique parenteral anti-hypertensive drug that has selective α1 and non- selective β adrenergic antagonist effects. In humans, the β to α blocking potency ratio is 7: 1 for IV labetalol. Dexmedetomidine is highly selective alpha2 adrenergic agonist having several beneficial actions during the perioperative period. Activation of alpha2 adrenergic receptors in the brain and spinal cord inhibits neuronal firing causing hypotension and bradycardia. This study was designed to compare between the role of Labetalol infusion versus Dexmedetomidine infusion in hypotensive anesthesia in Ear, Nose and Throat surgeries.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

Active Comparator: Patients undergoing ear, nose and throat surgeries who will receive dexmedetomidine infusion
Dexmedetomidine group: the patients will receive deliberate hypotensive anesthesia with dexmedetomidine infusion (precedex ® 200 μg/2 ml; Hospira, Inc., Rocky Mount, USA) via syringe pump by adding 200 mcg (2ml) of dexmedetomidine to 48 ml of normal saline (final concentration of 4 mcg/ml) The patients will receive a loading dose of 1mcg/kg intravenously followed by an infusion of 0.7 mcg/kg/hour as maintenance dose.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Time Frame
Mean arterial blood pressure changes before induction of anesthesia & every 15 min throughout deliberate hypotension
Time Frame: 12 months
12 months

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Time Frame
Heart rate changes before induction of anesthesia and every 15 min
Time Frame: 12 months
12 months
Surgical site oligaemia will be evaluated by the surgeons by rating the amount of bleeding according to Modena bleeding score that provides five different levels (from "Grade 1 - no bleeding" to "Grade 5")
Time Frame: 12 months
12 months
Surgeon satisfaction At the end of the surgery will be evaluated by one surgeon and recorded according to a 5-point Likert scale (5: excellent, 4: Good, 3: Satisfactory, 2: Poor, 1: Very poor)
Time Frame: 12 months
12 months
Total anesthetic consumption including both inhalational anesthetic consumption and narcotics consumption.
