Comparison of Lidocaine and Dexmedetomidine in Preventing Fentanyl-induced Cough in Patients Undergoing Elective Surgery: A Blinded Randomized Controlled Trial
The results of this study demonstrated that 0.5 μg × kg<sup>-1</sup> of DEX and 1.5 mg × kg<sup>-1</sup> of LIDO are equally effective in preventing FIC. However, hemodynamic parameters are more markedly suppressed in the DEX group compared to the lidocaine group.
