Randomized Controlled TrialIntravenous Dexmedetomidine Combined with Ultrasound-Guided Rectus Sheath Block for Open Gastrectomy: a Prospective Randomized Trial.
To compare the incidences of positive hemodynamic response (HR > 100 beats min-1 or SBP > 160 mmHg) during abdominal exploration and moderate pain after surgery, when using dexmedetomidine infusion and rectus sheath block. ⋯ Dexmedetomidine infusion combined with rectus sheath block provided more hemodynamic stability during abdominal exploration and better analgesia after surgery.
