Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Hemodynamic parameters - Mean arterial pressure( MAP)Timepoint: Baseline values will be recorded (average of 3) prior to start of study drug. At 0,5 and 10 mins hemodynamic parameters and BIS are recorded. Then at induction , intubation and incision. In between recordings at 15 min interval. At stopping study drug and starting atracurium. Followed by stopping atracurium and tapering propofol. Again recordings will be taken at emergence and extubation

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Hemodynamic parameter SBP and DBP, HR, BIS Requirement of other annaetshetic drugs propofol, atracurium. Vas score post extubation Analgesic requirement. Timepoint: Baseline values will be recorded (average of 3) prior to start of study drug. At 0,5 and 10 mins hemodynamic parameters and BIS are recorded. Then at induction , intubation and incision. In between recordings at 15 min interval. At stopping study drug and starting atracurium. Followed by stopping atracurium and tapering propofol. Again recordings will be taken at emergence and extubation Visual analogue scale till 24 hours post surgery.
