Description

Comparison regarding the efficacy, safety and overall effectiveness of dexmedetomidine and dexmedtomidine and ketamine (ketodex) in achieving controlled hypotension during Ear and nose surgeries.

  • comparison between both drugs in recovery and hemodynamics stability
  • Assessment the analgesic and sedative role of both drugs

Eligibility

Inclusion Criteria

  • Age Range: Patients aged 18-60 years who are scheduled for elective Ear and nose surgeries requiring controlled hypotensive anesthesia.
  • ASA Classification: Patients classified as American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) physical status I or II.
  • Surgical Procedures: Individuals undergoing specific ear and nose surgeries where controlled hypotensive anesthesia is typically indicated.
  • Stable Cardiovascular Health: Patients with stable cardiovascular function, without significant history of uncontrolled hypertension , hypotension or ischaemic heart diseases.

Exclusion Criteria

  • Severe Cardiovascular Conditions: Patients with severe cardiovascular diseases such as congestive heart failure, uncontrolled hypertension , arrhythmias or ischaemic heart diseases .
  • Any cardiac patients.
  • Respiratory Conditions: Individuals with significant respiratory conditions like chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) or severe asthma.
  • Drug Allergies: Patients with known hypersensitivity or allergic reactions to dexmedetomidine, ketamine or any other components of the study drugs.
  • Pregnancy or Lactation: Pregnant or breastfeeding women, due to potential risks to the fetus or infant.
  • Chronic Medication Use: Patients on chronic medications that could interfere with blood pressure regulation or interact with the study drugs (e.g., beta-blockers, MAO inhibitors).
  • Patients with chronic liver or renal diseases.
  • Psychiatric or Neurological Disorders: Individuals with severe psychiatric or neurological disorders that could impact the study outcomes or the patient's ability to consent.
  • Substance Abuse: Patients with a history of substance abuse, particularly involving sedatives or opioids, which could affect anesthesia requirements or recovery.
  • Coagulation Disorders: Individuals with coagulation disorders or on anticoagulant therapy, due to the increased risk of bleeding.
