Official title
Hemodynamic Effect of Dexmedetomidine Versus Magnesium Sulphate as an Adjuvant to Lidocaine in Preemptive Peribulbar Block in Patients Undergoing Dacryocystorhinostomy Under General Anesthesia: A Randomized Controlled Trial
Overview
This study aims to compare the hemodynamic effect of dexmedetomidine and magnesium sulphate as an adjuvant to lidocaine in preemptive peribulbar block in patients undergoing Dacryocystorhinostomy (DCR) under general anaesthesia (GA) .
Detailed description
Dacryocystorhinostomy (DCR) is a delicate ophthalmic surgical procedure aimed at reestablishing the patency of the nasolacrimal duct in patients suffering from nasolacrimal duct obstruction (NLDO).
Magnesium is a non-competitive N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptors antagonist, and it can decrease the excitatory post synaptic currents produced by activation of NMDA receptors and it inhibits voltage gated calcium channels.
Dexmedetomidine alpha-2 agonist, which stimulates both central and peripheral alpha-2 receptors which inhibits neuronal firing and inhibits release of C-fibers transmitters such as norepinephrine which inhibits nerve fiber action potential and explains the antinociceptive effects of dexmedetomidine.
Interventions
- Drug Lidocaine + Dexmedetomidine
Patients will receive 5 ml of lidocaine 2% + 50 µg dexmedetomidine, with a total volume of 7 ml. - Drug Lidocaine + Magnesium sulphate
Patients will receive 5 ml of lidocaine 2% + 100 mg magnesium sulphate 10%, with a total volume of 7 ml. - Drug Lidocaine
Patients will receive 7 ml of lidocaine 2% with no further additives.
Primary outcome measures
- Change in mean arterial blood pressure [Time frame: Till the end of surgery (Up to 2 hours)]
Secondary outcome measures (4)
- Heart rate [Time frame: Till the end of surgery (Up to 2 hours)]
- Oxygen saturation [Time frame: Till the end of surgery (Up to 2 hours)]
- Degree of patient satisfaction [Time frame: 24 hours postoperatively]
- Degree of surgeon satisfaction [Time frame: 24 hours postoperatively]
