Assessing the intra and postoperative hemodynamic stability in patients undergoing external dacrocystorhinostomy under general anesthesia using Dexmedetomidine as a preoperative sedation compared to traditional technique with intraoperative analgesia and assessing decreased anesthetic requirements intra and postoperative
Dexmedetomidine is a highly selective alpha 2 adrenoceptor agonist, having characteristics of natural sleep like sedation, can reduce pain intensity and opioid consumption without influencing the time of recovery from general anesthesia
