Brief summary

In this study investigators will evaluate the effect of stellate ganglion block on stress response of intubation in comparison to traditional antistress measures in adult patients

Detailed description

Both groups will have the same general anesthesia procedure, patients in stellate block group will receive lidocaine in the stellate block will in control group patients will receive Na.Cl as placebo. primary outcome will be stress response to subsequent endotracheal intubation measure by changes in heart rate
