Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
To observe the effect of continuous dexmedetomidine infusion on total dose of propofol requirement for maintenance of optimum level anaesthesia in elective spinal surgery.Timepoint: Throughout the duration of the procedure i.e. from the time of induction of anaesthesia till extubation of the patient

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
To compare the total requirement of fentanyl during intra operative period between the two groups. To compare haemodynamic status between above two groups after induction, during laryngoscopy and intubation, at the time of skin incision, and throughout the intra operative period. To compare the recovery profile between two groups as assessed by Ramsay sedation scale. to observe any other adverse consequences among the patientsTimepoint: 15 min before starting induction of anaesthesia to 15 min after extubation of the patients
