A comparative evaluation of efficacy of lignocaine and dexmedetomidine to attenuate hemodynamic and airway responses to endotracheal extubation in elective coronary artery bypass graft surgery: a prospective randomized double-blind clinical study
A single dose of dexmedetomidine (0.5 µg/kg) given 5 min prior to extubation significantly reduced post-extubation HR and improved extubation quality compared with lignocaine (1.5 mg/kg) in patients undergoing on-pump CABG surgeries.
