Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
To compare the efficacy of intravenous dexmedetomidine & clonidine as adjuvants to low dose opioid (fentanyl) in attenuating the haemodynamic response to laryngoscopy and tracheal intubation in patients undergoing surgery under general anaesthesiaTimepoint: Heart rate and mean blood pressure were recorded as baseline(before study drug), after study drug at 5,10 & 15 mins, after I.V. induction, at intubation (0 min), 1, 3, 5, 10 and 15 mins after intubation

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
1.To compare the dose requirement of opioid (fentanyl) and other anaesthetic agents (thiopentone) in all three groups. 2. To compare the duration of postoperative analgesia. 3. To look for side effects, if any. Timepoint: from the start of study drug upto the postoperative period
