Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
To evaluate the efficacy of nebulized dexmedetomidine [1 mcg / kg] on hemodynamic responses and on stress response to laryngoscopy and intubation. To evaluate the efficacy of nebulized dexmedetomidine [2 mcg / kg] on hemodynamic and on stress response to laryngoscopy and intubation.Timepoint: Hemodynamic parameters HR, SBP, DBP, MAP will be recorded at baseline than after 5 min and 10 min after inhaling nebulization and at immediately post induction, and subsequently at 1 min interval for 1st 10 minutes following laryngoscopy and intubation.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
To compare the effect of nebulized dexmedetomidine [1 mcg / kg vs 2 mcg / kg] on hemodynamics and myocardial oxygen demand. To observe adverse effects/ events if any.Timepoint: Hemodynamic parameters HR, SBP, DBP, MAP will be recorded at baseline than after 5 min and 10 min after inhaling nebulization and at immediately post induction, and subsequently at 1 min interval for 1st 10 minutes following laryngoscopy and intubation.
