Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Expected to find the attenuation of hemodynamic changes in patients to laryngoscopy and tracheal intubation using intravenous esmolol, lidocaine, and diltiazem and observed at baseline, after drug administration, immediately after intubation, and at 1, 3, and 5 min after intubation,verfied by transforming the collected data into variables which were coded and entered in Microsoft Excel. Data were analyzed and statistically evaluated using SPSS-PC-17 version.Quantitative data was expressed in mean, standard deviation and difference between three or more comparable groups were tested by one way ANOVA or Kruskal Wallis H test followed by post hoc test, while qualitative data were expressed in percentage. Statistical differences between the proportions were tested by chi square test or Fisher’s exact test. ‘P’ value less than 0.05 was considered statistically significant,it was observed that Pre-operative mean heart rate was comparable in all four groups. The heart rate was significantly lower in Group E (Esmolol group), followed by Group D (Diltiazem group) and Group L (Lignocaine group) from drug administration to study observation period. Maximum increase in HR occurred just after laryngoscopy.During the observation period, Rise in systolic blood pressure was lower in group D (Diltiazem group) until 5 minutes after intubation after which it was lower in group E (Esmolol group) as compared to other groups (Lignocaine and Normal Saline group). Diastolic blood pressure was also lower in group D (Diltiazem group) compare to other groups. It was significantly lower after 1 min of intubation compare to other groups before that it was lower but statistically not significant. After Diltiazem, diastolic blood pressure was lower in Esmolol group compare to lignocaine and normal saline group.The MAP was increased maximum in Normal saline group as compared to other groups following laryngoscopy and intubation. The maximum increase in MAP over the baseline values (95.29±8.62, 97.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Expected to ascertain the superiority of one drug over the other in suppressing sympathetic response to laryngoscopy and tracheal intubation,verfied by transforming the collected data into variables which were coded and entered in Microsoft Excel. Data were analyzed and statistically evaluated using SPSS-PC-17 version.Quantitative data was expressed in mean, standard deviation and difference between three or more comparable groups were tested by one way ANOVA or Kruskal Wallis H test followed by post hoc test, while qualitative data were expressed in percentage. Statistical differences between the proportions were tested by chi square test or Fisher’s exact test. ‘P’ value less than 0.05 was considered statistically significant, it was observed that esmolol was superior in attenuating heart rate and diastolic blood pressure as compared to diltiazem and lignocaine while diltiazem was superior in attenuating systolic blood pressure as compared to esmolol and lignocaine .
